Is becoming a pilot really about the paycheck — or the passion? In this episode of Pilot’s Say What?, Gregory shares his journey from theater to aviation, and why he believes passion, not money, is the only way to survive flight training and succeed as a pilot. We dive into the challenges of private pilot training, strategies for avoiding burnout, and the mindset needed to truly enjoy the grind of becoming a pilot. Gregory explains why chasing passion leads to success, and why money alone won’t get you through.
