      @@SlingPilotAcademy I'm in IT managing communications systems. I've been in IT for about 15 years now and I realized that I didn't want to do this type of work for the rest of my working life.

    I love Kate's comment made right at the onset of the video. "I'd rather live with failure than regret." It absolutely resonates with where many of us "career 2.0" folks are at. And totally for me as well - in fact I said that very thing to my 18yr old son just recently while planning my own move. I'm confident you 4 will attain your goal - good luck! Please update us with you progress.

    Im a career changer too. Please make a video about the Medexpress
    Process and how to prepare for going to AME. Wayne states in a video that if he could get a medical cert than anyone could. I’m finding out the hard way that is not true nor is it good advice.
    Students would benefit from knowing they can book a consult with an AME prior to their actual examination.
    If there are red flags, then the AME will advise the student what documentation to bring to the exam.
    Doing this can save a AME from having to defer a Medical Certification. Thank you.

    Well at age 60 and no collage degree, professional flying is not an option.
