Hello my name is Scott Ansteth. My interest in aviation began at a very young age. I live just north of DTW (about 12 miles) and much of the day my house is on the final flight path for many aircraft, so because of that I spent most of my time in my backyard looking up.
Currently, I am a senior at Eastern Michigan University and studying Aviation Flight Technology. As of right now I am a student pilot and just about to finish my private pilot licensing. I plan on taking my checkride within the next week or two. I am hoping to graduate within the next 24 months.
My current career goals is to finish out to at least my CFI at EMU and then if I am at enough hours, I would like to take the route of working for a cargo company rather than instructing to get to my hours needed to get hired by an airline. I believe I will gain much more experience in aviation going that route. Once I have enough hours to get hired by the regional carriers, I will apply to Endeavor, because it is a subsidiary of Delta Air Lines and that is the airline that I have always wanted to fly for because it has a rather large hub in Detroit and is very technologically advanced. However, I am open to working for other regional carriers that are associated with other major airlines as well.
I would like to hear from our professor's husband, Alex Wall who is a pilot for Delta Air Lines and has great knowledge of aviation and Delta Air Lines. The two topics that I am interested in when it comes to aviation that I haven't learned enough about is about the life of a cargo pilot and other jobs you can get as a pilot instead of just the airlines.
