Pilot

Hello Arnav, I can understand the anxiety and angst that must be in your mind. But let me assure you that just the fear of something may happen while doing your CPL course is no excuse to loose best three years of your life doing A.M.E. Where as you are actually interested in becoming a pilot. On the other hand if you take a positive view of the things without any anxiety then even if something happens during your CPL training and you have to withdraw even at that time also you can seek admission for A.M.E. Course. In this way you will not lose any years and that too at this stage in your life. My sincere advice is just do not worry and go wholeheartedly for obtaining your CPL. Best wishes to you.
