The world of aviation has always been of interest for me since my family and I would travel to many places. My parents like a lot of immigrant parents wanted me to become a lawyer, doctor, dentist, optometrist, etc but never did they consider the endless possibilities and satisfaction that piloting can bring. Ever since a captain invited me into his workspace, and I stepped into the cockpit for the first time, I fell in love with planes and aviation. The amount of responsibility, respect, and appreciation the job demands really drew my interest at that young age and I dreamed of it ever since. Dreams turned into goals and goals turned into actions when I applied to BCITs Commercial Pilot and Air Ops program and officially started my journey into the sky as an aspiring pilot. My short term goal is to graduate from the program top of my class and start working for Jazz or Encore. That's when the real work experience and hours will start to accumulate for me and hopefully after gaining 1000+ hours I can move up to a bigger national airline like Air Canada. My long term goal is to gain flight hours with Air Canada's heavier aircraft such as the 737s or even the 777. My dream aircraft type is the 747 (dream dream aircraft would be a super sonic passenger jet of the future) and the place I could most likely fly that is in UAE with Emirates.
