Here's my story. What's your advice?

For Tony C, he was not asking about a successful aviation career, for which it has been accepted a degree is not necessary.

Well... THAT all depends on your definition of "Successful"...

Success?

The individual who experiences success defines success. For many $100K at Part 121 scheduled passenger ALPA air carrier fits the definition. For others 747 Capt. flying Int'l making close to $150K may be considered successful. These are both doable without a college degree. Others may have a different definition of success and that is fine, but it is not the right of anyone to judge some one else's definition of success.

Try getting in the Navy reserve sqaudron out of NAS Bellechase,LA an ex-Navy rotorhead I work with went into the billet said it was hard to get into but well worth it. On the other hand I work for a small regional based in Milkwaukee and we have quite a few people I work with who are in the Air Guard and the told me there are plenty of billets if your willing to do the time. I would choose a C-130 or Refeuling wing.

Thats exactly why I said it depends on "your definition of successful"

I was just "pokin' the bear" for fun...
