honest advice?
 
I'm looking to get into choppers and would really like to be an instructor for a few years, build some hours and enjoy flying. I have been flying fixed wing for pleasure but really want to make a career out of helicopters. my concerns are:
1 its sodding expensive!
2 does anybody really want to learn to fly with a 21 year old?
3 will i get a job?
4 will i ever really earn enough to recoup what i spend?

any advice?

Yes, don't call helicopters choppers:=

Good luck.

1. Yes
2. Yes, but grow a beard
3. Yes, if you play your cards right
4. Same as 3. and if you live long enough and eat 1 minute noodles for the rest of your life

Good luck. :cool:

1. Yes
2. only a 20 year old
3. maybe, if you're sensible
4. unlikely, unless you have another income source on which to draw.

Cheers
