In the USA an aspiring civilian pilot can do their flight training and earn their licenses & ratings via these routes:\n\nA university aviation program (career track)\nAn aviation academy program (career track)\nA local flight school or flying club (career track OR recreational pilot)\n\nIf you simply want to be a Private Pilot, you should go to your local airport and investigate the schools or clubs on the field. Then get PPL course and rate info from each. Not all schools or clubs charge the same prices. Some are much more expensive than others.\n\nTo become a Private Pilot in the USA you must:\n1)meet the physical/medical requirements\n2)pass a written examnation*\n3)log a minimum of 40 hours of flight time (10 alone as a student and at least 20 with an instructor)\n4)pass an oral exam*\n5)pass a flight test\n\n*study for these tests can be one onone with an instructor or be taken via a 'ground school' course.\n\nMy flight training and pilot career website addresses How To Become A Pilot, espcially for those on the career track. Visit: http://www.geocities.com/av8trxx99/FAQ.html\n\n"Have you ever dreamt of learning to fly? Perhaps you would like to pursue aviation as a full-time profession, or maybe you'd like to fly for your personal enjoyment. But where can you go to learn to fly? What costs are involved? How long does it take? What are the age limits?"

Anywhere around the world? Then for definite mate, be a pilot. This is a skill that you can get a job anywhere. You can fly even jets for top high flyers, or for airport, or even invest in teaching how to fly and be one of those top flying instructor like my friend is.\n\nHe goes all over the world and man, he loves it. Maybe, fixing planes. Or if not, then go into the I.T field. It's growing fast but, it's all becoming outsourcing to India and other countries. USA companies, UK companies moving all their I.T bit by bit to India. It's cheaper so, not much good money there in future, so go into piloting.

your eyesight does not have to be perfect.  \ngo to \nwww.afrotc.com \nto apply for the AFROTC scholarship.  If you are going to be attending college this upcoming semester you can't get the scholarship for this semester--so just talk with a ROTC instructor at the school you wish to attend.\nI can explain how to get into flight school via the US Navy and US Marine Corps, which I have heard is similar in many ways to getting into the USAF flight program.  Do well in school...perfection is something everyone should strive for, but remember that "perfection" is different for everyone.  A 3.7 could be looked upon as perfect as a 4.0 if you are involved in activities with a 3.7, or even a 3.5.  I know in NROTC (not positive with AFROTC) you can major in anything (underwater basket weaving if you'd like) and as long as you do well you can still make it into flight school...in fact, it's said that history majors generally do better than engineering majors in flight school cause they are trained to memorize.  Be physically fit, do well in school, be dedicated to whatever you decide to do.\nIM me on AOL IM at smeagolyduck13 or contact me via yahoo if youve got any questions.\no, one more thing\nThe navy trains the best pilots in the world...(includes the Marines)\nSO...\nGo USMC or NAVY!!!

Each branch of the US Military has their own commissioning source(s) and will therefore give you different advice on the "best" ways to go about it. If you are less than two years into College, or are still high school, consider ROTC or entrance into your preferred military service's academy. If you currently hold a degree from an accredited institution, consider Officer Training School (OTS) as your commissioning source.\n\nThe path to flight status can be complicated, and there are a lot of disqualifying factors--everything comes into play--your sitting height/weight, your vision, your work/school history, any civil involvement. You need to concentrate on one thing at a time. \n\nIf you're still early in the game, talk to a recruiter but don't necessarily believe everything he says, and get all your options lined up before you make a decision. You'll want to do a lot of research as well. A good source of info is at www.baseops.net\n\nThe road to wings can take years--but will be more than worth it if you want it bad enough. Generally speaking as well, you will incur a 6 year active duty service commitment if you are accepted for a pilot slot.\n\nAlso keep in mind if the military is even for you. I've met a lot of officers that got hooked in Undergraduate Pilot Training, and now serve as officers somewhere else. Keep in mind that if everything doesn't work out in pilot training, you'd already be a commissioned officer at that point--so you'll still have to serve out your committment.\n\nMostly, more than anything, have your heart into it. If you know it's what you want, then go all the way...\n\nSee you in the air...\n\n"Sith"

engineering is hard work.  I am studying it right now.  I think it is not for me, but i'm gona finish my degree, because i've already been in school for 3 years and only really started having fun when i started reading lit.,  I think engineers create constant stress for themselves and feel the need to always work harder.  \n\nOf course you can be a pilot, but i suggest you find out if it is really for you, first. take some lessons on the side.  Watch some movies.  It is probably hard to make this kind of decision with the kind of stress you are under, so take you time and think about it.\n\nYou will be probably thinking a lot less, being a pilot.  It is like transitioning from being the principle to a Janitor, relativly speeking.  Not that being a pilot is a bad thing, but you will have a lot less responsibility in terms of decisions.  The only time you would have to make quick decitions is if the plane wasn't working and you need to save the people, but that probably won't happen and you probably won't be able to help them anyway.\n\nSo i can't really make the decision for you, but i know i'm getting out of engineering, before the plane goes down.

Very few people actually become pilots. I have a friend of mine who joined the Air- force as flying officer but never given chance to even sit in a fighter plane. So please do the necessary research before joining it. This is my personal opinion.

You can't go directly for U.G. in space research in ISRO.You must be a fully qualified Aeronautical Engineer.

Try Angel Flight. I know a few of the pilots and they are very happy to help in cases of actual need.

Firstly, you DO NOT have to go to an aviation university to become an airline pilot! (Don't let the ERAU marketing folks feed you too much of their Kool-Aid!) Many do as they are interested in aviation, so they figure they may as well major in it. However, it is NOT necesary. In fact, many suggest getting a degree in any subject other than aviation in case you ever find yourself laid off (like so many did after 9/11), as an pro pilot degree is useless to the rest of the working world.\n\nSchools like ERAU are not cheap (as you have found out). I recommend transferring in after going to a 2 year college to save some money. Getting an aviation university education can set you back $80-100K. A pilot I work with went to ERAU and would not do it over again if they had to.  After the $100K, they still had to instruct to get enough time to get a regional job just like everyone else and are in massive debt. All for a job that starts out at $18,000! You can find a list of aviation schools, if you decide to go ahead with the aviation degree, at the University Aviation Association website- http://www.uaa.aero/\n\nPerhaps one will be more affordable. Otherwise you can get your degree anywhere in any subject and do your flying on your own via a school or a club. That is a viable and much less expensive route. Read my website flight training and airline flying careers for more insight-\nhttp://www.geocities.com/av8trxx99/FAQ.html\n\nAnother idea is that after you complete trainng and your 2 year, you can go to ERAU extended campus and finish your 4 year degree while you work. The classes are much cheaper than at campus and you get the ERAU name on your degree.

If you are looking to find employment in Greece or in Europe, you should check into the airlines in your country/Europe and find out if they offer cadet schemes or sponsored training. Airlines offering such schemes will train you and then you will pay off your training loan via payroll deduction during your employment. Not all airlines offer such schemes, so you will have to check into who does.\n\nI suggest going to this aspiring & current career pilot message board in your search for information:\n\nhttp://www.pprune.org
