About this episode
Where are you RIGHT NOW in your aviation journey? Have you started flight training, but stalled out along the way?Did you finish that instrument rating?How about the commercial certificate, or CFI, or even CFII?Ever dream about getting your A&P?Have you wanted to be an airline pilot for years and years?Did you give up along the way when you ran out of money?Maybe you want to be a fighter pilot.Maybe you want to ferry airplanes around the world.Or some other crazy, wonderful dream! If you resonate with any of the above, you just might be an excellent candidate for aviation career coaching with Carl Valeri. Last year in 2022, when I was feeling grumpy and restless in my full time A&P/IA job (and longing to fly more,) I signed up for a career coaching session with Carl Valeri. It was one of the best decisions I made in that time of transition. Now, I have a pilot position flying for a local company in their King Air 350, and I work part time in my previous A&P job, and I’m loving it so much more! As I’ve shared about my work transition, I’ve heard from a fair number of people who have also thought about pursuing a flying job, or getting their A&P, etc. My encouragement it this: If it’s in your heart to do it, and you can’t stop thinking about it, then go for it! I know there are all kinds of obstacles to get past like fear, doubt, money, nay-sayers, etc. But you don’t want to look back years from now and regret not going for it and at least trying to reach your dream. If you’re in this place of decision, and you’re not sure what to do, I highly recommend contacting Carl Valeri, and signing up for an hour of his coaching. Carl is uniquely suited to give wise counsel to people pursuing an aviation career. He’s an airline captain and airline training instructor, aviation podcaster, and aviation career coach, with such a wide variety of experience in aviation. He certainly has his finger on the pulse of aviation at this current time. Carl helped me sort through my ideas, put me in touch with some key people for me to talk with, and gave excellent recommendations for how I could move forward. I’m super grateful for his
