Hi Stephen, I am super keen on getting into speedbird academy and becoming a pilot but I don't want to stay a pilot until retirement - I would work with ba SAF divisions while piloting and eventually found a company focusing on nuclear propulsion.
Do airlines expect you to stay a pilot until retirement, how can I navigate this as I don't want them to see me as uncommitted?
Thank you
