Filing Flight Plan
Greetings all!!
I am a college student starting my senior year, and I 'am seriously considering going into being a pilot as a career. Aviation has always been an interest of mine and I'm young and figured I'd try to go for it now before I get tied down with other things in life. I've been taking flying lessons at a small pay as you go local flight school for about a month trying to get my private licence.
I've been looking pretty hard into going to a bigger flight school such as ATP or somewhere like that to get my training for muilt-engine, commercial etc. My main draw a bigger flight school they seem to have better networking/job placement. But they are super expensive.
So I guess my question is, are these bigger flight schools really worth the money?? Do people who train with them have a better shot at landing a job? Upon my graduating college this may I will have a pretty significant amount of student loans to pay back so I don't want to get myself into more debt right off the bat unless I absolutely have to.
Thanks!!
