First post! Been browsing around here for a few days btw. This looks like a great place to save myself some heartaches and learning the hard way thanks to the experience you folks have to offer. Okay, now to the point...
I'm 26. Have a 4 yr degree from a UT campus, been working 4 yrs in my studied field (radio broadcast) and am looking to get out. People often get where I am and never move on. I don't plan on wasting away here. Have about decided it's time to live out a life doing a job I enjoy - I mean, I've got a good job that pays pretty well, but I want to a job that doesn't feel like a job. Indulge in a passion, you know? (read: SICK of having to call pop music "today's best music")
At first I had my eyes set on ATP Arlington for a few good reasons, but after looking into the unstable airline industry, I've decided it may not be worth my while to dive into $60k of debt.
I have 0 flight time, just serious interest and passion for everything aviation since I was in diapers. I'm in a situation where I can definitely pursue the dream.
My question is, what's available to folks that don't want to fly airlines but want to fly for a living?
