[QUOTE="Ramp77, post: 2325286, member: 63932"] That is only partially true. If you have done any financial analysis and had a historical perspective on career progression you would understand that now is the best time financially since the end of the Vietnam war to become a pilot. Most flying schools will hire you as an instructor when you finish their program and/or offer tuition reimbursement or aid. Unheard of just a few years ago. Also, many regional airlines are offering significant hiring bonuses plus the best compensation packages they have ever offered. There are also many great corporate flying jobs available. So while you say it's more expensive than ever to become a pilot you are only looking at the initial training costs. I had to get a 4 year college degree to be competitive for the best jobs, that is no longer the case either. One thing I will mention is that you have to enjoy the job to be the most successful. Some people spend a lot of time and money and in the end realize the job is not for them. [/QUOTE]
