Hello I am 25yrs of age and own a house with my wife. I work a easy job in maintenance . Before that I was a welder/fab for about 6yrs. And enjoyed that, but a year ago I decided that I want more out of my life then just to have a job I wanted to do something that I liked to do for a living. I wanted to learn how to fly. I think a lot of people do, But I never really took the chance to do it. Until last march when I woke up one day and said, I need more then this, I took flying lessons and just this past November I got Privet pilots certificate. After that all I wanted to do is fly for a living, I needed other certificates, but where I took my lessons at didn’t really have any type of student aid . I got my loan from Salliemae, and when I went back to get my second one they would only cover so much. I could have took a bank loan but I would not be able to go to work full time and school and have another mouthy payment. There is a lot of endorsements that I need if I want to make a career out of it, instrument rating, CFI, CFII, commercial, and multi engine. You need about 1200 to 1300 hundred hours just to even be considered to work at most places. I would get around 400hrs just in that training alone and pick up the rest instructing that’s where the CFI and CFII come in at. This is something I have the drive to complete, But right now my wife is going to school for a PA, and she has a few more tears left. After that even though she will have real good career ahead of her we will still have a some amount of student loans to pay along with mine. Continuing a person’s education hard to do when money is a big part of it. I just want to better my self. I am not looking to be rich or to find some one to pay my bills my whole life, just a hand up in life. I do all the hard work, not afraid of that.
Thanks for taken a moment of your time.
