I downloaded the PDF file to my Desktop and now want to download it to my iPad. Where do I find the link to download the scholarship PDF file to my iPad? -
Does the score on my written exam matter?

I’m interested in becoming a pilot and found a few aviation programs, including flight school. I have no flight experience or even stepped foot inside a plane besides riding a helicopter once in 2010.
If I don’t get to become an airline pilot when I reach the requirements then I’m willing to do cargo planes until I get into airline.

Would a personal bankruptcy (about 1yr closed) affect getting hired (or a clearance) by an airline?---I will try to finish my 1500 hours before 2025

Non-Compete Clauses - Just sign John Doe. It “voids” the contract. They never checked the name. Remember lying and inaccuracies can get you fired even years later.
So I went down to my AME for the first class medical I was told I have amblyopia for those that don’t know what that is means my eyes don’t fuse the AME had me take the paperwork to an eye doctor and have them fill out. I passed everything without glasses. Just couldn’t see the 3D bugs. Ame called two different people at the headquarters and told me he had to defer me. Iv been waiting over 60 days now with no letters nothing. Is it ok to call and ask or will they see it as a bad thing also the ame said I might have to take a flight test. Is anyone able to tell me what they are looking for with this flight test? Iv looked all over YouTube and have found nothing. Do they have stuff for ppl with one eye or is it the same test?
This channel is a must-subscribe for me lol.
Did 15 years in the US Navy. Got out and used my G.I. Bill to get through flight school. Flying is literally on my mind 24/7. Did 15 years in a career that I didn’t want to do and now I’ve been blessed with the opportunity to choose and man do I believe I’ve chosen wisely I can’t Thank you enough for this channel!
Current $250+/hr to train with a flight instructor. My BFR just cost me $1300. The pilot shortage is nothing more than a nasty joke meant to blow smoke up the *** of the few suckers whose parents can still afford this. I just wanted to become a CFI and I see no path forward. Bye.

If someone had a DUI 12 years ago can they still have a good career in aviation. Currently in the long process of getting 1st class medical. Exactly how difficult will it be to get hired for any pilot jobs and are there any tips to make the hiring process a little better.

What are the "3D Bugs" on the vision test? I'm guessing it's special for his vision issue. AND why did a BFR cost $1300 should be a few hundred $$$$, and that's assuming you have to rent a plane.

[YANGWANG-eh]

hello sir，I am a pilot of an Airbus 320 aircraft in China, with thousands of flight hours, grounded for five years due to policy reasons, is there a chance to get an FAA license?

[Antonio-kx]

Hello, question I was wondering if it’s a good idea or even possible to get my PPL, Commercial and then CFI to start building time? I don’t feel like doing an accelerated program only to be dropped due to me not putting in my all as I have to maintain a job to pay the bills. Or should I just do ATP which is the other option as I have a school 5 miles away. Any feedback will help thank you.

[Woovmger]
