    For me, its better to go get your degree first before flight school because some airlines make having a degree a must. If you wanna get employed to their companies, you get your degree first Even if u wanna go to flight school first when u are done u will still have to go get your degree which is over 3 years. Nice video love keep up the good work.

    If you dont mind me asking but seeing that your a captain for Delta which is a pretty big airline. How much do they make?

      Hi 👋🏽, thanks for tuning in! Payscale varies from airline to airline, and there are sites online that can give a good indication of salaries. As a pilot at a major airline you can earn a pretty good salary. If you’re passionate about flying, let that be your first motivation, but the pay will be worth it over time. ✈️
