[@AviationPro]

Great video! I can relate to this as a current ATPL flight student... In some ways it's scary, but there's always hope for the future, even though the path to that future in the air may be long and cumbersome. For anyone who's thinking about becoming a pilot, I would definitely recommend the first option to study at uni BEFORE flight training. Not only does it give you a backup plan, it also gives you a lot of life experience which helps you get through the selection processes of flight schools. Moreover, studying something before rather than after flight training will generate a whole lot less stress in situations like this, because YOU know that you have a backup in the pocket! Also, make sure you find different ways of generating some income. Never only rely on one source. If you look carefully and work hard, you will be able to generate multiple small sources of income, which in the end gives you more certainty. If you are genuinly motivated to become a pilot and work hard, you will get there no matter what! Good luck to all! :)

I can recommend studying before flight school any time! I've heard too many stories of people losing their medical and only having the option of becoming a flight instructor... And even when forgetting about corona: Studying will significantly elevate your chances at better positions during your pilot career. With different degrees, you can become e.g. a technical pilot, base manager, fleet captain besides just flying, which will definitely increase your salary...

[@willplanes6441]

Wise advice. That's what I'm currently doing :) I started aeronautical engineering studies so it'll give me 5 years (5 years in France to graduate as an aeronautical engineer) to finish my PPL, prepare for my ATPL and my IR (and get better at english) :)

Hello CJ greetings from Puerto Rico, I think this is the best and most important video of all , thanks for that !

[@FrankC321]

Captain Joe, your the man. Just as Pilots are always learning, I promote "always learning" within my small software engineering team. Having "Plan B" is very important. The professions in the airline industry that you mentioned (mechanic, ramp agent) will be very helpful to those in the pilot training pipeline or those wanting to get into the pipeline. Working on the ramp, getting close to turboprop or turbojet engines, the smell of JP5 in the morning, that is the best. I'm very stoked after viewing this video.

[@k-i_d]

These are good recommendations. But in reality it is not easily practicable for a lot of people. Studying or learning a new profession is only useful if you make it to some sort of graduation. Is the time span you are waiting in total enough to reach this point? Doing internships is also very recommended, but the chances of finding one (that is actually useful) during times of extreme hygiene measures and limitations are really low, unless the company you work with has some solution. The best recommendation is to bridge waiting times with work. But finding a job, for example, during this year's crisis was really hard, and if you got one, it often barely let you pay your monthly expenditures.

[@93hothead]

[@opl500]

Just from a bean counting perspective, aviation doesn't make sense, you will spend a lot of money to buy what is essentially a burger flipping job (most pilots don't make much, the ones that do are a really tiny %). But bean counting isn't everything.

[@Therion0184]

Exactly. It's almost impossible to "just get another job" during this crisis. In past recessions or depressions normally people could still try to bridge the gap by waiting tables, working retail, or some other menial job, but even that isn't possible now because of health restrictions on basically any job that requires you to interact with people directly. There's almost nothing to do unless you have some white-collar tech job that allows you to work from home.

[@Cptbaraa]

I'm an airline pilot, and for what we are facing i suggest you to extend your studies, first put large gaps between each flights, to end your academic studies around the end of 2021, to avoid any expiry between finishing the academy and finding a job, during this period applies for any job, any job teach you a lot of new stuff, and during airline interview is really appreciate or start any study you may like at university, entering at 20 years old is easier than 17/18 as you are more mature and more prone to study properly and bachelors combined with your cpl/ir are really appreciate on the airlines because piloting will form your carisma, team managment and authority, so with a bachelor you can be assigned to the respective department on your older age

Captain joe!! Right man at the right time!! Loads of love!! Much needed these words!! Wish I could ever meet you atleast once in life❤

I’m 16, 17 this August and have a year of school left. I’ve always wanted to go straight to flight school but this is probably going to make me go to university or do an apprenticeship. If anyone’s got anything useful to say I’d love to hear it!

[@hurricane7800]

A little late I guess, but I graduated in 2019 in the same boat as you, minus the pandemic. I started at one university and am now at another, studying business informatics and also working at a paid internship. It's not what I want to do forever, but it's great experience and at the end will be a great fallback. Plus, I can save for flight school. Since you posted this a while ago, what did you end up doing, if I may ask?

[@barnabyg6808]

@@hurricane7800 well I'm still at school, it's literally ending in 5 days but I'm going to university now to do geography. I'm not particularly excited about going but it will give me another 3 years to think and the industry to recover. I have also reconsidered a career in the military so there's a good chance I'll end up doing that for 10-15 years and then going into the airline industry a bit later but highly employable and experienced

@@aena5995 follow your most favorite passion (which I think is to become a pilot) and also, this whole covid BS will end soon (in a year or so I think) what my family is saying that to first have a backup (my parents are saying to study BTEC then go for pilot license so if I didn't get the license, I have go for another job). And also, this is just my opinion, you can ask your parents for your support.
