1badz32 Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 I'm not sure if this is the right forum to post for the first time.... i've been on several car forums for many years and most of them have a "new members" section. At anyrate, my name is Terre, I live in central Minnesota, and i asspire to become an EMS pilot. Though there are several positions open in my area, i have only completed my intro flight and i am a very VERY long way from being able to apply for those positions. I know i want to become a heli pilot, ive knowen this for along time, but only recently decided to act on this intuition. There is a heli flight school ~1 hour away that i have been in contact with and really want to attend, BUT i dont fully understand what the first step is after training completion.After i loan out the money's to complete this schooling what job oppertunities are there?? Is flight instructor pretty much the only job i'd be able to "compete" for??I didnt see a FAQ section, im sure these questions have been asked more than a few times already. Thanks for any input, much appriciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1badz32 Posted December 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 I'm still trying to figure out if piloting a small or "exeramental" craft counts for PIC?I'd really like to get my hands on a Mini 500. It seems like some people deem them unreliable, but 'most' people that dont like them, do not seem to have much expieriance with them, just intra web knowlage. Where as people that have them or have flowen them seem to love'em.I dunno, maybe i'll just forget the whole thing and stick to my video games. Atleast there my heli's have guns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
