For those of you like me, who wanted to pursue flying as a career, you will need to obtain your commercial pilots certificate. Right now there is a very high demand for professional pilots in all fields of commercial flying. From the local level to worldwide flying, pilots are in serious demand. With your commercial and as little as 250-500 hours of flight time, you can find a good starting position. Within a year or two you could be flying jets at a regional carrier.
