Guys----
My son just let me know that he is seriously thinking about pursuing a career as an airline pilot. He's just finishing his 2nd year of college--math major. Is not a pilot---enjoys flying with me, but has never had the desire or motivation to work on his ratings........ Has been doing a lot of soul-searching and is beginning to look into the possibility and career opportunities a professional pilot career might offer.
I fly for fun---so giving him advice is not something I'm extremely comfortable doing.
Know quite a few of you are professional pilots------what would your HONEST advice be to him if her was asking you directly? (He knows he is getting a somewhat late start, but is willing to put in the time and work to get there...)
