Yeah, pretty much the feeling you get looking at it. I've never seen any other broker with 'used car' terms listed. If it sounds too good to be true...

Yeah, I was wondering about their aircraft sales actually. If anyone has bought a plane from them.

That was what I was thinking. I've never seen an ad from them until recently. I'm hoping some one on here may have dealt with them.

Has anyone every dealt with these guys before? selectairinc.com Reputable?

Paying for the lessons isn't the problem. I work at night, sometimes 12 hours. For about 2 1/2 months I couldn't go at all, which basically made me start over. Not everyone's situation is the same, and taking longer in calendar time doesn't necessarily equate to lack of aptitude. If I had 80...

Well, pretty much as expected. Lots of great advice, and I appreciate all of it. Like any other profession, it's experience and/or who you know.

I'm hopeful the wife will land a nice teaching job. :p We'll see. That is an option I've considered.

Civil Air Patrol? I never thought of that... Thanks!

Yes, I can be a good pilot. I can be good at anything, really. Can I be exceptional? Have to try to find out!;) Nice pick up on the afford thing. I have a short term leech problem, but it will get better in 3 years. I expect that it will take about that long to build up to 250.

I went into the Navy recruiters office when I was 18 and told them I wanted to be a pilot. Guy told me it was impossible without going to college first, and that he had a great job for me! 20K re-enlistment bonus! Straight to E-4! Lots of School! Long story short, I believed the recruiter who...

I was pretty sure this would be the answer, but it never hurts to ask. Seems odd that fixing robots pays better than ferrying human lives about, doesn't it?

Thanks to each of you for the replies thus far. Just to be clear, this isn't a typical mid life crises moment. I've been an Engineer for over 20 years, but I've never been in one place for more than 5. Most of my career has been on the road, so the nomadic lifestyle isn't new to me. I'm just...

Hello Everyone, After wanting to be a pilot my whole life, I finally began training last summer. I've almost completed my private pilots license, and I am looking to the future. I started all this thinking that being a charter pilot might be a good way to spend retirement, but I really don't...
