Fred0311 Posted August 18, 2018 Posted August 18, 2018 I went to a GI bill pilot factory. I started with 75 students. Of them about 5 of us are employed pilots. You wouldn't tell some of them their benefits may be better spent elsewhere? Or the student looking at financing $100k? I love what I do and worked hard to get here. Show me a post where I complain about not being able to get a job or how there should be an easier path. If someone comes to me asking about flying I share my passion for aviation with them, but I also tell them about the hardships and that the odds are against them. Butters way isn't the right way, but it's a story that should be told because it's a pretty common one. Quote
