Airline Pilot or Engineer? 10 points?
If you are given the qualification as stated below, do you go for airline pilot or engineer?
Age: 23
Education: Bachelor Degree in Electrical Engineering (Completed)
Pilot License: None
1) Given a scholarship to join cadet pilot program for 18 months to acquire CPL/IR and frozen ATPL.
Upon graduation, training as a second officer and later serve the major airliner as first officer
2) Join a company as an engineer in electrical/electronic/aviation industry.
What will be your choice?
Airline Pilot or Engineer? 10 points?
first one~
Airline Pilot or Engineer? 10 points?
Ask yourself this:
Do I want to work as an engineer and have a stable home life,or
work as a pilot and be away from home a lot?
Both of these are excellent career fields. Only you can decide what you want to do.
Before you decide, I suggest that you talk to someone or several people in those career fields.
Regards,
Dan

Reply:Go for (1) if you feel keen enough and are confident that you will make it.
Reply:There aren%26#039;t that many airplanes out there with engineers anymore. Most of their functions can and are being automated and since people are one of an airlines most expensive items, airlines are getting rid of aircraft with engineers.
Besides, the best seat on any airplane is the one facing forward in the cockpit.
Reply:air line pilot
Reply:2) --The engineer job.
You already consider being a nonpilot to be an option.
That is not the case with someone who wants to be a pilot.
You would not be happy as a professional pilot.
Reply:Not even a choice. Definitely the Engineering profession. Why? Just look at what the skyrocketing price of fuel is doing to the airline industry. Some airlines have gone bankrupt, others are looking for someone to merge with. Those that are surviving are drastically looking for ways to compensate for the added costs of fuel. They are cutting routes or service. They are laying off employees, and putting less fuel efficient aircraft in storage. They are now charging for services that were once offered for free.Soon they will be requesting wage concessions from the various labor unions. It%26#039;s an industry that is in a rapid state of decline. The need for airline pilots in the future will be very limited. On the other hand there will always be a need for Electrical Engineers.
Please note that if you audit the %26quot;questions%26quot; asked by all those who are telling you to %26quot;go for the piloting career%26quot; you can deduce that they are probably young kids whose total knowledge of aircraft is what they learn by playing Flight Simulator on their computer.
Reply:First of all, your description of choice (1) doesn%26#039;t sound completely based on facts. You need to review the information about the cadet program you mention, and the questionable idea of a %26quot;frozen%26quot; ATPL. You need to get these things straight and make sure you have not taken some bad advice or gotten some of the facts confused.
At the same time, if you do in fact have a degree in EE, you are set up for an excellent career in a rewarding field in which you will have some genuine control over the exigencies of your life, and will not face the potentially diminishing future of the aviation industry.
Your ideas of a professional piloting career are not necessarily very realistic, and it is a field that does not necessarily have a good future. The engineering career sounds more solid.
Reply:Get the engineering job. With the education, you can go anywhere. Try to get a job with an oil company.......or anything that doesn%26#039;t involve aviation. I have 29 years with my aviation job. I have been a mechanic, lead mechanic, corporate rep, and inspector.......and now I don%26#039;t know if my job will last to the end of the year. Many of our experienced pilots are looking for other jobs, too. (a lot of competition there) Flight Engineers will soon be a thing of the past. Oil companies don%26#039;t seem to lose money. Utility companies don%26#039;t seem to lose money, either.

How old do you have to be to start Flight Attendant Training?
Do you have to be a certain age?
How old do you have to be to start Flight Attendant Training?
Well to get a job with an airline, you have to be 18.
How old do you have to be to start Flight Attendant Training?
Depends on the airline. For some the minimum age is 19, for others it is 21.
Reply:i have a friend who quit school at 16 to attend flight attendant training... but i think you have to be 18 before you could be employed

Pilots please read this post?
Hi there,
I am a pilot with a frozen ATPL looking for jobs abroad, bush pilot or small operator%26#039;s don%26#039;t want to work for the airlines it%26#039;s not me.
I have spent every night searching the internet, looking up websites and not really getting any where or really finding anything other than airline jobs .I am starting to get really fed up .
Please can someone tell me if they know any operators abroad in countries like Africa, india etc..........I really need all the info I can get, any advice at all would be fantastic!
Thanks so much!
Pilots please read this post?
The best I can do for you is to tell you to contact the red cross, UN or a company in South-Africa called Fedair. You can also try DHL in South-Africa, Nature Link and Executive Turbine.
Tell me what are you rated on and you time on turbine if any.
Pilots please read this post?
botswana, namibia or zimbabwe in africa and the northern territory and western australia like broome and darwin in aussie have many jobs of that type.
Reply:If you can qualify for the Gulfstream, there are nice high paying jobs in the Mideast. Get referrals at Flight Safety.
Reply:Why do you have a fozen ATPL if you don%26#039;t want to fly for an Airline?
What exactly are your intentions?
I would recommend taking your (FI) rating and become a flight instructor for PPL students.
If you have a CPL and further more a multi-engine rating you could fly as a pilot for a light commuter company.
You know what licenses you have and if any, restrictions. So I%26#039;m puzzled to why you think it is necessary to post such a question on here.
Very puzzled.....
Reply:I can give you some contact details in Maun Botswana. They always looking for pilots and the flying is amazing over the Okavongo Delta. Plenty of operators there flying types from C206 to C208B to Islanders. If you interested e-mail me

Is there anywhere in the UK that you can get a flight in a fighter jet?
My dad has always wanted to fly in a MIG-29 or a MIG-15, generally any type of fighter jet like that. I want to buy a gift certificate or something along those lines for him and a friend to do it. I know there are places ouside of the UK but does anyone know of anywhere in the UK?

This will cost roughly 12,000 USD though. If you want to spend that much, have fun

You can%26#039;t trust Yahoo!Answers to automatically place your question in the right category. You ask a question about %26quot;planes%26quot; in the geometric sense, and it should be placed in the %26quot;mathematics%26quot; section.
But Y!A associates %26quot;plane%26quot; with %26quot;airplane,%26quot; for which the word is a frequent slang substitute. So your question ends up in the %26quot;aircraft%26quot; section, which is not the best place for it. This has happened to you before, and it suggests that you should manually select the category for your geometry questions.
