What are some effective habits to have in College and after to be a successful pilot? What requirements must I fill after college to fly become a commercial pilot as well?
Ever since I was seven years old, I have always been interested in aviation because of my first flight to Detroit because when I first saw the aircraft I have never seen anything so massive in my life. The large turbines and ailerons were all new to me and seeing it for the first time resulted in me panicking that whole flight of wanting to get off the plane. This experience was both comical and hilarious every time I think about it. I have been studying the parts of a plane and its functions, but I never knew what I would do after college to become a pilot and how to be a successful one due to having people's lives on my hand. If there any are any tips please fill me in because I look forward to being the best pilot I could be while being cordial and successful. #engineering #aviation #aerospace

Becoming a commercial pilot is a very long process. Many pilots are former Air Force or Navy pilots. To be licensed as a commercial pilot requires a lot of hours flying, so being a military pilot is a fast way to earn those hours without having to spend your own money on it.
