<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Don't think you can become a pilot? I think you can - learning to fly is easier than you think! <p><strong>Have you always dreamed of becoming a pilot?</strong></p> <p><strong>Are you wondering if now is a good time to become a pilot?</strong></p> <p><strong>Do you want to get started with flight training, but need help choosing a school?</strong></p> <p><strong>All your questions will be answered in this book! This book may be the most important book you will ever read if you want to become a professional pilot...</strong></p> <p><strong>But first a warning, </strong> this is not a book about "learning to fly" in a literal sense. You won't learn how aerodynamics work or how to control an aircraft in flight - that's something you will learn once you start your flight training. Instead, this book contains information that flight schools won't teach you. The information you NEED to know before you should commit to flight training!</p> <p><strong>The knowledge you gain from this book is essential for you to have a successful and enjoyable career as a commercial or airline pilot!</strong> The main focus of the book is on FAA and EASA flight training in the U.S., but most of the principles apply regardless of your nationality.</p> <p>Whether you want to earn your private pilot certificate, become a corporate pilot, or become a captain in a major airline - this book is for you. And one note to the ladies - it is now the golden age for female pilots!</p> <p><strong>Did you know you could become a commercial pilot, or even a flight instructor, at the age of 18 with less than 12 months of training?</strong> Right now is an excellent time to become a pilot because there is a global pilot shortage that is expected to last for the next two decades or longer. Boeing estimates that there will be a worldwide demand for 790,000 pilots between 2018 and 2037. That's a lot of pilots! How do I know the pilot shortage is not just a myth?</p> <p>Currently, most airlines in China are hiring airline captains from foreign countries because there are not enough Chinese pilots. And what's the pay like? Boeing 737 or Airbus 320 captains can earn an annual salary up to $380,000! That's over 30k per month! ...and, wait for it--it's all tax-free (in China)! Yes, it will be a long road to become an airline captain earning a good salary. But guess what? Reading this book will help you decide if you want to pursue the career.</p> <p><strong>Who is this Author?</strong></p> <p><em>With Bachelor's and Master's degrees from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Vesa knows a thing or two about aviation. With several years as a flight instructor, assistant chief flight instructor, and ultimately as the Chief Flight Instructor of a major flight academy, he is an expert in pilot training. Having trained hundreds of pilots who currently work for many airlines (including many Chinese airlines), he has the first-hand knowledge of the demand for new pilots. Because of his experience as a corporate airline captain, he understands the benefits and downsides of pilot life and can help you decide whether it's a good career path for you!</em></p> <p>Here are some of the questions this book will answer: </p> <ul> <li>Is a pilot career a good choise for me?</li> <li>How much does flight training cost?</li> <li>What are the medical requirements for pilots?</li> <li>How can I finance flight training without any savings or income?</li> <li>What are the benefits and downsides of a pilot career?</li> <li>What kind of certificates and ratings do I need to start working as a professional pilot?</li> <li>How to choose the best flight school (and flight instructor) based on my individual needs?</li> </ul> <p><strong>Flight training is fast-paced, fun, and exciting. Why not get started now?</strong></p> <p> </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"This book showed me how I could turn my passion for aviation into a career in many areas. It explained in detail the experiences of the author and that not everyone comes from the background you would expect to become a pilot. Most of all it showed me that anyone can do it! I really liked that it also showed some of the negative aspects and the stress you will encounter, so it is a balanced view of the industry, not just trying to get you to think its always amazing and carefree. Anyone who wants to be a pilot should read this book carefully and then read it again to make sure it sticks. Overall I think this is a very fair and balanced view of the industry from someone who has lived it for a long time and I consider it a must-read for anyone even thinking of getting into this industry.</p> <ul> <li>Jeremy Maswary, Executive Director of Investment Banking Products</li> </ul> <p>"Vesa managed to condense a lot of truly useful information in a relatively short and easy to read book which could be the only book you would need for getting started on your aviation career. I followed the same path which Vesa described and it served me well for over 17 years and counting in the aviation industry. I fully recommend this book."</p> <ul> <li>Mark Lendvay, Airbus A320 Line Training Captain</li> </ul> <p>"Vesa has done an excellent job at explaining the pros & cons of being a professional pilot. This book also takes you through the various types of pilot jobs out there and there are many. In the book, he also lays out how to get qualified and the various paths to this and costs related. Vesa also goes into the available scholarships. If you are contemplating taking this up as a career this book will help you create a successful game-plan. I am an Airline Transport Pilot myself and have flown private jets, air ambulance and for the airlines and I endorse this book!"</p> <ul> <li>Fabrizio Poli, Aviation Consultant, President of the Beezjet Group, Entrepreneur & ATPL Jet Pilot</li> </ul> <p>"This book does a great job of laying out all the options and paths to a career in aviation. Having the best information on hand helps people make the best decisions possible. I wish I had this book when I was beginning my flight training! It would have made some decisions a lot easier."</p> <ul> <li>Preston Seckman, Falcon 7X / Legacy 650 Corporate Airline Captain</li> </ul> <p>"I enjoyed reading Learn To Fly And Become A Pilot! Even someone without any flying background can easily follow the subject and it would be especially useful for young students just starting out in school or college to read and understand if this is something that they would truly like to pursue as a career and if so, how to go about it. This is a great book for anyone interested in the exciting world of flying aircraft and in learning more about that lifestyle."</p> <ul> <li>Gisela Dixon, Readers' Favorite</li> </ul> <p>The author's enthusiasm in this book is laudable from the start, and it's clear to see that Vesa Turpeinan knows everything there is to know about the world of pilot selection and training.</p> <ul> <li>Reviewed By K.C. Finn for Readers' Favorit</li> </ul> <p>I loved that he didn't sugarcoat the job, though he loves it. He mentions some of the downsides of the job, like how it changes your sleeping habits and lets you know what it does to your family life. Vesa Turpeinen does a great job in describing the costs of the schools and how you can pay for it.</p> <ul> <li>Reviewed By Renee Guill for Readers' Favorite</li> </ul> <p>The writing is awesome fluid and accessible. The writing is enriched by the author's vast experience in the field and this experience.</p> <ul> <li>Reviewed By Christian Sia for Readers' Favorite</li> </ul> <p> </p><br>
