10 Tips to Creating Your Own Success Flight Path
Take control of your finances and start creating your own Success Flight Path
Yes, I Want It!I've been there - furloughed and displaced, but had to create a Plan B to support myself and my family.
Following the 9/11 disaster, I had to PUT MY MASK ON FIRST.
Never again...
In early 2001, I had finally landed my dream job as a airline pilot with a major US carrier. Ten months later, I was out of a job and more importantly, out of a paycheck that I so desperately needed to support my family!
Following the events of 9/11, which decimated the airline industry, I vowed NEVER to rely on one source of income ever again. This website is dedicated to helping fellow crew members to set themselves up where their financial survival can stand the test of aviation's cyclical nature. Today, we face a global pandemic which has grounded more than 75 percent of the flights worldwide.

Financial Flight Path Academy
An on-line course that shows you how to go from adversity to abundance in six easy steps
Preflight
Know your numbers. What do you actually make and what do you actually need to make to not have to worry about money again? What do you need to get out of the "Rat Race!"
Takeoff
Whether you are the start of your aviation career or in the middle with a layoff or furlough under your belt, uncover the right questions to ask to get you to your desired destination?
Cruise
Your planning is going to differ from the next pilot, but numbers don't lie. Creating a financial plan and additional income stream gives you more control of your money and your time.
Descent
Creating passive income that supports your lifestyle, without interfering with your flying JOB takes a little planning and education. Sustaining it gives you even more financial freedom.
Approach
Operations and dispatch have our backs planning for the next flight, but who is going to have your back when you're laid off and all of the other airlines are furloughing too? Protect your personal castle with the right crew.
Landing
A little bit of planning and work will provide you with peace of mind - no matter what happens at your airline. Control the factors you can control and make it to your destination safely.

"She showed me...how I could be successful"
I have had the pleasure of knowing Melinda over 10 years, in that time she has been innovative and inspirational. She continually encouraged me to get a “side hustle” meaning a second job. I had a second job but, she encouraged me to get my own business started doing something that I was passionate about.
Melinda not only spoke to me, she showed me information and financially how I could be successful as my own boss. I took her advice and have started the process of opening my own business within the next year.
