Anyone here that can give me an unbiased ear to talk to? These schools seem like they're selling something! And I suppose they are. You can PM me or post here. Would like to talk to someone that has been through the process and knows what the actual job outlook is in the next 25 years.

I'm in my early 30's as well. Little late- but still time to make a career of it I think if I want to.

Thanks in advance.

Hey I have spent 25 yrs around civil and ag aviation. All my best friends are accomplished pilots. it is not glamorous, dosent pay well and kinda boring 95% of the time. The other bonuses are lower than average pay and medical issues that can neutralize your entire career in a flash. And the new tech takes alot of the fun out of flying. I would choose another career move and buy yourself a super cub to play with!
