Just enjoy, remember most rich people did so by just doing the things they were prepared to do as a hobby because they had passion, don't lose the passion and a career can find you.
Otherwise it is just a job.

Well i the problem that i have is that to become a com pilot you need plenty of cash for all the convershions from prop to turbine ect,so i go for the instructor career all i wanna do is fly all day instead of sitting in a officewhat alot of the instructors do is they only fly and instruct for a hobby and a bit of extra cash,so ill still do the perment job thing!!
Thanks for everyones inputs!!!!!!! :D :D

Hi Guys / Gals
Sorry to hi-jack this topic, but I'm also planning on starting my MPL this winter at Microland/Skyriders. I was wondering if anybody on the forum is directly involved with Skyriders and whether I could set up a meeting with them/you, to have a chat and go through the ins-and-outs....?
