1 Flight Training

Earning your pilot's license is a monumental step in your aviation journey. Start by obtaining a Private Pilot License (PPL), which allows you to fly small aircraft. This requires passing a medical exam, completing flight training hours with a certified instructor, and passing written and practical exams. While this doesn't require a college degree, dedication and a passion for flying are essential. As you progress, consider additional certifications like the Commercial Pilot License (CPL) to open more career doors.

2 Aircraft Mechanic

If you're fascinated by what keeps aircraft aloft, becoming an Aircraft Maintenance Technician (AMT) might be your calling. No degree is needed, but you must attend a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)-approved Part 147 school. Here, you'll learn about aircraft systems, repairs, and maintenance over 18 to 24 months. Afterward, you'll take FAA exams to become certified. This hands-on career is critical to aviation safety and operations.

3 Air Traffic Control

Air traffic controllers are the unsung heroes ensuring safe skies. You can become one through the FAA's Air Traffic Collegiate Training Initiative (AT-CTI) program or by having three years of progressively responsible work experience. The AT-CTI program is offered at select schools and combines education with simulation training. Alternatively, military experience in air traffic control can also pave your way into this high-responsibility field.

This career offers the chance to travel the world and requires no college degree.

I started working as a Flight Attendant straight after finishing High School. In my personal point of view especially after being in the Industry for 17 years, I'd recommend to either do your studies or an apprentice before starting as a Cabin Crew. Once you're infected by the Aviation Virus it's hard to focus on something else. I started my apprentice at the Age of 23 whilst still flying part-time. It was a hard Deal but I've made it. Afterwards I was able to collect more Degrees during my career based on my apprentice certificate. Without it this would not have been possible. So I recommend: Do a proper and finished degree before becoming Cabin Crew. You'll also be more mature and prepared for some Situations.
