  • My recommendation is to get a High enough GPA in high school and start figuring out how to get your money to pay for everything. You can count on around 120.0 dollars for everything, so from the beginning of your flight training till the time you are done. Good Luck and keep at it!
  • Get a simulator game… yes…
    The worst thing to do to become an airline pilot –
    But you will become an excellent simulator game pilot –

    My advice – do not play with simulator games –
    They are not of any value to educate you to be a pilot –

    The subjects that are best for pilots are mathematics, physics and English –
    Biology and chemistry is really of no use for a pilot –
    Your technology course might be ok –
    Consider also taking geography (study of maps, scales, longitude/latitude) –

  • Add physics, human physiology and geography to your high school curriculum if you can.

    Do well enough in all your studies to get into college and earn a 4-year college degree, then spend about $80,0 on civilian flight school. Once you have earned your wings get a flying job starting at about $20k per year flying small aircraft. In about 10 years from graduating college and flight school you’ll have the experience and qualifications to start interviewing with the major airlines. Don’t expect that to happen before age 30-32.

  • None of the above are necessary to learn to fly an airplane. If you can read a fifth grade elementary school textbook and use a pocket calculator, you have all the knowledge you need to start training to fly an airplane.

    What you NEED to learn before you can fly an airplane is how to PAY for it! Aviation is a VERY expensive hobby, and even MORE expensive if you want to train to become a commercial pilot and get paid for it. We’re talking around $10,0 (US) for a private pilot’s certificate, and $75.0 to $1,0 to become a commercial pilot.

    If you can’t come up with the money to pay for your training,. you might as well forget the whole thing and learn to drive a bus instead.

  • Here’s something you may not believe. It’s pc game. Ready? It’s called flight simulator. Get either 4 or 5. I’m not joking when I tell if you want to start learning to fly, get this game. There’s hours of training. It’s not just a game.
