Hi I am in Grade 11 and I live in Canada. I was just wondering what
would be the best way to go to school and become a commercial airline pilot
as well as being able to get into an airline industry? I will be recieving
my private pilots license after Grade 12 free through Cadets and I am also
currently in french immersion and will be bilingual by the end of high
school. I was thinking on attending RMC, (Royal Military College), and joing
the airforce afterwards, but I was wondering if there were any other ways on
doing it and being able to get a job afterwards. Any opinions will be
appriciated. Thanks.

RMC and military is a solid route.

Or go to Seneca college or the like and go that way.

At any rate get a degree or college diploma. Especially if you are going
to train yourself, do the instructor thing and move up that way.

One very major airline is looking at ab-initio training their own, so
keep your ear to the floor. This will be contracted out to a major
training institute.

I suggest that you go to www.aviation.ca and check out their forum archives,
I think you will find them full of information regarding training in Canada
as well as many experiences regarding RMC and military application.

Happy landings,
