I'm Going to be a Pilot

So I'm about to transfer to a military college and then join the Canadian Army. I'm looking to serve for 8-10 years before pulling out and become a commercial/airline pilot.

I'm turning 20yrs old in 3 months--so I'm a little old. But I was wondering if anyone here is a pilot or has experience with the industry,

Just wanted to know your opinion on it and what its like?

Good luck.

@kokemabb200: I'm not a pilot but I think this might be a useful resource.

@mandarinestro: Thank-you!

good luck and jet fuel can't melt steel beams.

I'm not a pilot but a friend of mine is and he loves it. Takes a certain breed though, from what he has suggested.

Good luck dude. Don't fly the test modulator airplane into buildings for the jokes. Your superiors will not take kindly to that (I imagine).

@kokemabb200: What size diapers do you wear?

@albusan: None, why?

20 years is old now? You're never too old to do anything until you're too old to do it.

Good luck.

@kokemabb200: Military pilots have to wear diapers. No bathroom breaks.

Good luck mate.

@albusan: oh.. haha well I guess I'll have to find out. I've picked out a ton of books and I'm reading through them now so I can get a better idea on what to expect and some handbooks as well.

I figured I'd just jump in head-first and work towards it :)

@noone301994:They might get a little miffed, no doubt :)

@heatblaze123:@sophia89:@mandarinestro:@flashback0180:@the_caped_crusader: Thanks for the well-wishes, it means a lot :)

Gr8 I am going to be a firefighter or if i am lucky an actor.

Am going to walk for my first time guys wish me luck

@kokemabb200:

did you leave cadets as a warrant officer? Fsgt? Warrant 1st class?

Yes someone in the same grade.

Glad to see you bought into the propaganda of our military worshiping society

Good luck.

Congrats !

Work hard.
