Pilots AViation Flight

Calling all PILOTS/any one attended/attending training schools e.g Cabair and oxford aviation and got a ATPL?
I would love to know from all airline pilots
a) how did you become an airline pilot, eg highers taken, A levels, how your career progressed.
b) If you went to an airline training place like 'cabair' or 'oxford aviation' of 'flight training europe' what it was like and what are the chances of bing sponsered with an airline whilst you are there.
3) if they sponser you do they pay most of the cost, or do they like 'lend' you it untill you pay them back in future years.. etc
from a unsure wannabe pilot. lol x
thanks
They get a cut from the bank lending it to you. Then they get it all from you. They do pretty well on the deal. Most folks do get hired. Right now is a good time to get into the industry, as a large fraction of the pilots are approaching the mandatory retirement.

Xb70 Valkerie Pilots Flight Operating Manual $37.66 The XB70 Valkyrie was an aircraft ahead of its time. Equipped with drooping wingtips, and designed with one of the highest lifttodrag ratios in aviation history, the XB70 challenged the known concepts of the flight envelope and demanded extraordinary developments in engineering and construction. The test program produced promising results, including a Mach 3 flight in May of 1966. Yet after a disastrous collision later that year resulted in the loss of one of two prototypes, the Valkyrie program was curtailed. The remaining craft was retired in 1969. Originally printed by NASA and the Air Force in the 1960s, this Flight Operating Handbook taught pilots everything they needed to know before entering the cockpit. Classified Restricted, the manual was recently declassified and is here reprinted in book form. This affordable facsimile has been slightly reformatted. Care has been taken however to preserve the integrity of the text. Author: Air Force, United States/ NASA Binding Type: Paperback Number of Pages: 542 Publication Date: 2010/05/10 Language: English Dimensions: 10.00 x 7.99 x 1.09 inches |

Brownout (Aviation) $78.07 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles In aviation, a brownout is an inflight visibility restriction due to dust or sand in the air. In a brownout, the pilot cannot see nearby objects which provide the outside visual references necessary to control the aircraft near the ground. This can cause spatial disorientation and loss of situational awareness leading to an accident. Pilots have compared landing during brownouts to parallel parking an automobile with your eyes closed. The brownout phenomenon causes accidents during helicopter landing and takeoff operations in arid desert terrain. Intense, blinding dust clouds stirred up by the helicopter rotor downwash during nearground flight causes significant flight safety risks from aircraft and ground obstacle collisions, and dynamic rollover due to sloped and uneven terrain. Brownouts have claimed more helicopters in recent military operations than all other threats combined. Author: Miller, Frederic P./ Vandome, Agnes F./ McBrewster, John Binding Type: Paperback Number of Pages: 108 Publication Date: 2010/07/13 Language: English Dimensions: 5.98 x 9.01 x 0.25 inches |

Helicopter Pilot Training at Blue Sky Aviation
Is Jacksonville University a good school to go to to get the aviation management and flight operations degree?
Is Jacksonville University a good school to go to to get the aviation management and flight operations degree with an ultimate goal of flying for Delta, Southwest USAir as a Captain/Pilot In Command?
This doesn't really relate to Jacksonville University but I think it may be helpful...
A degree alone is not enough in my opinion to become a commercial pilot. Like with most careers, there is a lot of competition. Most commercial jet pilots have been in the US Air Force for a number of years, but that's after they had their private, small prop plane licenses. Then with that experience they took exams to become commercial pilots.
This is from what I read, it may not be 100% true so correct me if I am wrong. Although it may seem as though it requires a lot of training and experience to become a commercial pilot, I think it's one of the most rewarding and pleasurable careers out there.
Good Luck!
