Hey DanT that's awesome that you're thinking of doctor/pilot, I'm considering it as well, so much schooling to become a doctor though :) ....

In a few years you are going to be 30 yrs old. When you are
30 yrs old, would you like to be a doctor or not?

It is your choice. Hint: doctor's almost always have the nicest
airplanes at the airport :wink:

Asking a pilot about what he thinks of Transport Canada, is like asking a fire hydrant what does he think about dogs.

There is nothing that can replace the experience of a university education. The life skills and time management you learn is valuable forever. I wish I did at least my PPL during the summer when I was in school. The time is there in the summer.

Finding the balance between finances and paying for education/flight training and still partying is hard, but will teach you a good work ethic. You'll also learn if you love flying and want it as a career or not!

Really? I guess not for me....you can always catch me burning the midnight clock the night before an exam at my University library!

Same with papers!
