Question From Video:

Time Or Money. What Is More Important For My Pilot Career?

https://youtu.be/4WQaThLE0CU 

Question: Is an aviation-focused degree required for legacy airlines and/or corporate 135 companies, or is a BA or BS in another profession acceptable? 

I’m transitioning from the mortgage industry of 24 years to my true passion at the age of 47 and have my instrument check ride in the next 6 weeks. I’m roughly 424 TT so my goal is to have my commercial license before Christmas this year 2022, and already have my degree from when I was in college in my 20s. 

I have a part 91 job lined up to build time in a Navajo and then get type rated for their CJ3 which my instructor just made captain in. Just thought I would ask about the aviation degree. Thank you for your time and congratulations on your Captain & Instructor position. That's a great opportunity!

Listener Mail:

Thank you for all you do on the podcast. It has given me a lot of help while I plan my aviation journey.

My plan is to pursue a career with the airlines. But I am wondering if they require a covid vaccine.=

Thank you for your help!
