Thank you for this answer brabus, I think I speak for a few people when I say it’s hard to contemplate if you’re going to be able to be there for things. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I wanted to be an engineer in the space industry if possible. I know it’s going to be difficult especially after working in aeronautics for a long time. I wanted to know the plausibility and if anyone has taken this path. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I tried searching the threads for this but is it possible to become an engineer after flying? For those who have followed this path what is some advice you can offer? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you sir this is the realistic advice I was looking for. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am in now thank you for the advice. I am doing some soul searching and selecting this path I do understand that there will be a commitment that I’ll have to live up to. To rephrase my question more so on the off time how is it and is it completely sacrificing attending events for my kids or will there be somewhat of a balance. 30/70 split with the 70 being dedicated to flying.

I’ve read this thread and know it’s mission dependent. Are there any F-15 and -35 pilots that can weigh more on the family life in these aircraft as their predecessors divest ex. -35 taking over the -10/-16 mission as well as the 15s as the 15ex comes online. I have 2 kids and a wife that’s active and I’d like for her to stay home as well as the ability for me to be there as well as have time for hobbies. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
