Im a senior in high school right now, I am looking to get a degree in computer science and then I think I am going to join the usaf and see if I can fly for the usaf and eventually (after many years) retire and fly for the airlines.Andrew

I can't tell you what it takes to be a pilot but I can tell you what it takes to be a well rounded, educated individual with a variety of career choices. You need a degree. I didn't see any History, Sociology, Composition or Political Science in that class schedule. You may not need those classes to be pilot but you need them in another place - life.

I chose to only list the aviation-related ones, but you do have your standard general education in the course.

Stay clear of aviation! Get a carrieer that pay's more money(allowing one to own your own airplane),and allow's you to have a decent family life. The golden day's are far gone. With scab labor and outsourcing,this proffession is done. Remember!!!!!! Wive's and airline job's are noncompatable!!
