My uncle got his airplane cert and bought a piper cherokee when i was
in elementary school. i flew with him a few times including some short XC trips to see my mom. i had a fairly typical set of airplane toys when i was a kid but didn't really "always dream of being a pilot". In high school i worked at my dad's pizza restaurant and a few CFI's started working there after they got a break from flying thanks to 9-11. Then i decided i wanted to be an airline pilot so i went through all the power training through Multi Engine Instructor. By the time I was done with that I realized that I didn't want to be an airline pilot but being a corporate pilot couldn't be that bad. My parents had other ideas and made me go to college so i had a "real job" backup. So I went to Aerospace Engineering school and basically by chance learned to fly gliders. I worked a lot as a CFI and Charter pilot while sometimes going to class. Now I work as an engineer but really just want to fly gliders all the time. |
