Best way to best jobs is starting as a military flier. And definitely get a degree first regardless.[/quote]

Military will pay for both and you'll be a better pilot. I worked in aviation and I will always choose to fly with ex-military. Better training and[b] they're selected for temperament and intelligence. [/b]That's why they make up the bulk of the higher paying commercial jobs and will always be preferred in those positions. Civilian flight school can get you a job flying the dirty bird from Trenton to Morgantown, but it's not a direct path to the bigger jobs. [/quote]

They most assuredly are not.  I'm a former Navy pilot, and that is not how the selection process works.  But the Navy does have the best flight training.[/quote]

Agree military gives the best flight training.  But you need a degree (preferably in aviation) and that have to select you to be a pilot.  They have some pretty exacting criteria in regards to medical examination.  Something as seemly benign as not having the right arm length range can disqualify you from passing flight physical. If not military, he needs to attend a college with a 4 yr aviation degree [/quote]

What? Lol. No. None of this is true.
