  1. Stick with Mechanical Eng.  Do not become a commercial pilot.

    Most Major Airline pilots are bearing the stress of 50% pay cuts, the loss of their pension, and working second jobs to make ends meet

    Pilots can barely concentrate on keeping the flight safe, because Airline Management, while giving each executive millions in bonus $$ each year, are skimping on pilot salaries, fuel, maintenance, and ground safety personnel. All to keep ticket prices and pilot salaries as they were in 1980.

    Study medicine or financial investment or law or computers or anything that will pay you according to the responsibility you have over people's lives.  Flying will not.


  2. Finish your engineering degree first. With that in hand, think about getting a masters degree in one of the aeronautical disciplines such as aircraft structures, aerodynamics, propulsion, etc.  If you want to be a military pilot, contact the Air Force recruiting office and get information on requirements for pilots. You need to have good eyesight and be in top physical condition (start conditioning now), as well as be a good student with a clean background (no drugs or alcohol or legal trouble). If you can get into flight training and get your wings with the 4 year degree, the military may send you back to school for a Masters or PhD.
