"Scubs" star Zach Braff describes the challenges of learning to fly; he now owns his own Cirrus SR-22 The military can be a desirable career and was once a viable option for flight training. Flying for the military today is a whole new experience! The AIr Force trained more drone pilots than "real" pilots in 2009; a trend that is increasing exponentially.

Previous experience hiring part 61 pilots revealed a lack of skill and discipline and resulted in huge attrition rates.
