Im 19 & in my 2nd year of college, studying Psychology. I decided 2 do this course after school bcause i was so unsure of wat direction i wanted 2 go in & my parents thought that it would be a good qualification 2 have behind me no matter wat i chose as a career.
The truth is that im really unhappy,& ever since i was 16 i wanted to fly planes!The problem is ive been 2 embarrased to tell anyone,& afraid that my dream myt get shot down by my parents or laughed at by my friends.
Ive tried 2 look into wat it would take 2 train for my private pilots licence,but in most cases (in South Africa that is) u have 2 have done physics and maths at school and done very well at them 2 be accepted in2 training programs. Ive heard of other smaller training schools where i could go but i think it will be very expensive. could any1 tell me an estimated cost for pursuing something like this? and wat does the medical exam include?
advice from pilots or anyone in the field would be great! thanks:)
