Learning to fly a helicopter may seem an out of bounds dream but determined people will be pleased to know that there is a big demand for pilots to fulfill many different jobs. The first step in realizing the dream is to find a reputable helicopter school. There are many to choose from, especially in the USA. People from outside America often travel to the US to sign up at a school because lessons there tend to be less expensive than elsewhere.
Obtaining a pilot’s license opens up several opportunities. Jobs are available in the television and film industries, transporting cargo, monitoring traffic flow and fire fighting. Aerial photography companies and crop spraying firms also require pilots. A helicopter school may also prepare a pilot to apply for a Flight Instructor’s career.

Every artist comes across the same question at some point: what kind of work is feeding my muse, and what kind of work is selling out. Although this question seems pretty relevant when you’re a teenager, it becomes somehow less important as you get older. Don’t get me wrong – there are certain things that you should always treasure. You should always make sure that your own artistic projects stay true to your vision. Not doing so invites disaster. Nevertheless, that doesn’t mean that you can’t take jobs on commission. Look at it as an opportunity to refine your craft and make some money on the side.
Although I have considered myself an artistic photographer for many years, I only recently begun a career in photography.

Beatrix Kiddo asked: I’ve never been the photographer at a wedding or any kind of special occasion, so how do I start? I know that if I had some kind of portfolio to show to potential clients, it would increase my chances of getting jobs……but since I don’t, where do I begin? I’d like to keep it small, maybe get my phone number in the Yellow Pages, post a few fliers, things like that, but where do I go from there and what else can I do?
Thanks for ANY suggestions!
We want to know what you think!
