Please someone preferably who flew both worlds helos and planes.
I am married w/2 kids, I have 6800 TT I flew MD11, F100, F27, King airs etc... I have not much PIC time due I have been flown in Brazilian major airlines and takes an average of 6 to 7 years to upgrade there. I was furloughed in April 2000 and claimed my american citizenship in September 2000 moved here and got a job in a FEDEX feeder the money is short 27k an year now but i can upgrade to caravan PIC and start at 33k going to 50k in 5 years. The army recruiters conviced me to get an age waver and have all paperwork done to try the warrant officer school to be an Helo pilot they said I can make 40k year by the first year.
Is that correct??
And How is to fly helos?? Is that fun?? I've been flying planes for last 15 years though I can learn fast ?? am i right ??
Do you think be a military will worth for me?? Remember what is in the game here. I am a dual citizen chances to get a good job in USA are not good mainly after 9/11 but also because my background is not all american.
Thank you in advance for all of you who will answer or read my post.
