Re: Pilots Working The Ramp
It really is too bad that it works out this way once you're trained up in flying and trying to find your first flying position.

Hi,

I would suggest another career path at this time.The reason being is it will take you 5-10 years to make approx.$60,000/annum which is much needed to survive,let alone having a family.If you live in Ontario for examp...

finding work
It really is surprising at the # of people who don't want to go too far to start their aviation career.I don't know many of them off hand but I have met a few that's for sure. As far as flying goes for low timers I personally think it still isn't that great at the moment for landing a flying job/Ram...
