My first job in aviation. Late 60's. Loved it and learned a lot. Don't know about now, but pay was crap back then. |

If you just go to a flight school, all you're going to get close to is that school's planes. I worked line service while getting my private. If you can get a job in line service you can get up close to almost every fw and helicopter on the airport and talk with their pilots and mechanics. i fueled everything from Bell 47s to Hueys, Cubs to DC-3s and 707s, including Air Force 2. i got some good advice and some bad advice. But it was worth it. |

My son just completed his Private thru CFII a Oklahoma State Univerisity in their Professional Pilot Program and got hired by Fed Ex upon graduation. Excellent flight school and the BS degree is a shoe-in to any major Airline. |

Fed Ex or a Fed Ex feeder like Mountain Air Cargo? Big difference. |

Perhaps it may be best to also visit a few. Instructors come and go and mangement changes. Maybe good to talk to a few, look at their aircraft, etc. You'll probably be a better judge than most people Good luck and hope your grandson enjoys it! |
