What will you do?

[GreaseMonkey]

I am 15 years old and eventually want to be an airline pilot, im the talk of the family  ;)  but what do you want to do? or what are you studying to do?

[Mobius]

I can't choose more than one!  Oh well, I'll probably get a job that's solely engineering first, so that's what I chose.

[Mictheslik]

I'm planning on doing an engineering degree, hopefully at Cambridge....

that would suggest engineer, but I would love to be a pilot or ATC.....but unfortunately I don't think I could scrape 60000 quid together for a CPL

Not sure yet... I want to go into media. My great uncle, Tim Hampton, was Associate Producer of The Life of Brian.  8-)

I also hope to get a PPL and a little plane at some point.  ;)

I Really want to be a pilot of some form, ill probably get some help on the way from my dad scene as he has his own aeroplane(s) and will hopefully offer some reasonable rates

[EGNX]

Pilot... Hopefully RAF if they let me... its been a life long dream to join the RAF like my Grandfather and its been a life long dream to fly... so combining the two would be the best thing I could do... If not, watch out easyJet... Just need the

[Cobra]

Pilot if they will have me...

Any job where they give me a pair of wings, but ideally RAF then go commercial when im a bit older...! Can't imagine things working out that well though, ask me in 6 months  ;D

I'm going to SUNY Farmingdale for the Airways Management program in the fall. I graduate with a twin-engine IFR rating plus a CFII rating. From there, it's on to the military to get flight time. After that, I'm applying to a few regional carriers and work my way up.

[BFMF]

I'm satisfied with my PPL for now. Maybe in the future i'll go ahead and get my IFR & Instrument certifications and fly smaller prop aircraft, but I certainly don't have the urge to fly the big busses for a living.

As for school, i'm going to be looking into being an Avionics Engineer tech...

Well, I would love to have a PPL someday (where IS that option on your poll, hm?  ;) ).  Topping 35-years-old, I think it is a little late to start towards a career in aviation.  I guess that is another one of those things that I can have a what-if dream about when I hit the sack at night.

Right now?  Well, seeing as my teaching contract is up in another 6 months, I am just looking for career-quality work to pay the bills, put food on the table, and help keep a roof over my family.  Still . . .

My sweety is very supportive of my aviation interests.  As long as all other priorities are being met, she is totally behind me attending a flight school and getting my PPL.  Our hope is that I can get both a PPL and small aircraft by or before retirement so that we can enjoy that in our later years.

Ah, dreams . . .

EDIT:

Thanks for adding the PPL option!  :)

I'm wanting to go into the RAF but I can't be a pilot though so I'm looking at other career paths in the RAF.
