Please help I'm confused, how do I become a pilot?

You pick a university with a major some type of aeronautical science. For example, I live in AZ and there is a school called Embry-Riddle University a few cities away from me that I could go to for that if I wanted to be a pilot. Here is the website http://www.erau.edu/. Getting a good GPA overall is important when getting a degree. After that, you apply for your pilot's license and start flying. You are going to have to start off with small plane's because you need a certain number of flight hours in order to fly the big plane's, it's the same for helicopter. Right now you should take and do good in math and science courses, specifically physics. If you aren't good at those classes, maybe flying isn't for you because that is all you are going to learn in college.

You might first want to interview some working pilots and find out why so many are dissatisfied with what the airlines are doing to them (stuff like cutting their hours back, cutting salaries, benefits, etc). Keep in mind that because of competition, airlines are engaged in a "race to the bottom" in terms of service and no doubt with regard to employee satisfaction. It may be that airlines are trying to capitalize on those people who love to pilot airplanes so much, that they're willing to do it practically for nothing.

You have to pay for flight time and lessons. You can google flight school or flight training with your zipcode and you will find airports that offer these services. Most of their websites are very comprehensive and give all of the answers you seek.
