Pilot shortage is just around the corner, or at least this is what media headlines say. Take such videos with a pinch of salt.
Often aspiring pilots underestimate how volatile the aviation job market is. For instance wanna-be pilots do not know the difference in job perspective in relation to the chosen flight school. A flight licence no longer guarantees you a flying job. Worse, it might leave you unemployed and with a huge debt. So before taking the plunge and taking a mortgage out on your (or your family’s) house, find out:
- How much does it cost to become a pilot?
- How the aviation job market looks like in Europe?
- How to make the right choice between flight schools?
- What the life of a pilot is like today?
