awesome pics! Ya I love to fly too. I always wanted to be an airline pilot, but that path changed due to another great job I have, plus it is very hard to get into the airlines and move up/keep a job. Right now I just fly Cessnas as a hobby, and my flightsim at home of course

 

Flying around in Cessnas is by far 10x more FUN then flying for the airlines, I love to fly around in 172's and Piper J-3's, most fun one could ever have

PS I added a whole bunch of info on my post so go back and re-read

 

My bad.. I was just guestimating on the hours. I know you'd know more about it than me . And yes, I know how netjets works, and how you get to be one. I was simply stating that's a route to go. I've talked numerous amounts of times to a Captain at NetJets of a G5 and he's explained it all to me.

Anyways, good luck on everything!

And I got to fly a 172 also. (which is where I found out about failing the lightgun ). It was a blast!! We did the weightless simulation.. that was a trip! And a lot of fun too. You feel every bump and jostle, it's a rush.

 

wow i never even considered being a pilot as a career
but it seems so amazingg! it would be awesome to do
but expensive right?

 

Thanks Joey and everybody else for the input!

 

Thanks for the pictures!! I live somewhat close to LAX and we have a national airport even closer to me where they have some schools. I was looking into them. JoeyBalls, how long did it take you from the absolute start to get your first airline job? And did you use a loan for your working capital in the beginning?

Do they still have a program for pilots that allows them to carry firearms while they fly?
