>>1047988 Do try to check your other options. My first jobs out of the gate were banner-towing and tourist flights at a seaside resort town. Flew almost 500 hours in one summer. Rent-free in a crappy company-provided house, but got what I needed out of it. And of course when the next war heats up, there'll be demand for civilian contractors to fly light cargo & UAVs. Not for everyone, but it worked for me. Good luck.
