I want to get my pilots license but I have NO IDEA how?

Okay, so my goal is to either attend an Air Force Academy or join an ROTC (Reserve Officers' Training Corps) through a 4-year University. I am currently a Junior (11th grade) in High School and I want to get my pilot license in the summer of 2025. I know what the requirements are for an FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) private pilot certificate: 1. 17 years of age 2. Fluency in English 3. Hold at least a third-class medical certificate from an Aviation Medical Examiner 4. 40 hours of total flight time (20 with an instructor/10 solo/specific types of training such as flight maneuvers, navigation, cross-country flights, and night flying) 5. Ground School completion through an FAA-approved school 6. Pass the FAA Private Pilot Written Exam (70% or higher to pass) 7. Pass the Checkride (An oral exam and flight test conducted by an FAA-designated pilot examiner) However, I do not know how or where to find a flight school, ground school, or flight instructor that is affordable for a 17-year-old teenager from a low-income family working several part-time jobs already.

I'm interested in becoming a Aircraft Mechanic but there are a few things holding me back

As title states.. So i'm really interested and excited going into this unique field. I've read some other people's experience about the job but what really concerns is the part of the night shifts and relocating. I don't mind doing night shifts in the early career but around how long does it last? Because I do would like to spend some time with my family. And how is the relocation? Do relocate just to fix something and then come back? Or is it relocate permanently ? After obtaining the AME, what other positions does it qualify you for? I live in Montreal, Quebec if that helps... #airline-industry #aircraft #airplane #aircraft-maintenance #aircraft-mechanic #airplane-mechanic

How hard is it to maintain a family life as a pilot

I'm aware that pilots not only have a dangerous job, but a demanding one. How hard is it to maintain a relationship with a spouse, children, and extended family while spending hundreds of hours in the air #aviation #aerospace #family #aircraft #pilots #flight
