Ok I have a question and hopefully people can fill me in on the pros and cons.
I am currently working on my CSEL and will be working toward a CMEL after that. I currently have a job with excellent pay, benefits and schedule that allows me to continue to going to school part time. I already know that based on pay rates at some local flight schools that I would take a pay cut and lose benefits that are really valuable to me and my family at this point.
My plan is to find local drop zones to work part time during the summers (my schedule gives me four days off every week.) to build time while I'm in school. (Probably another three years left before I graduate.)
I'm open to taken advantage of other opportunities as I build time (no rush to get to the airlines while I'm still in college) during my time in school. Is it impossible for someone who builds time like this to get a job sometime down the road to get a job in the future? Is Instructing experience favored when applying to jobs?
