What jobs around the airport can i do to help raise money for flight lessons?

I'm a High School Graduate and wanna take flying lessons and would lke some additional money to pay for my ground school as I'm still too young to take Flying Lessons, I'm 16 you have to be 17.

Am I still too young to get a job in or around the airport?

Would appreciate any responses (-:

There are all kinds of jobs to do. Washing aircraft, fuelling, dispatching, helping in the shop. Sometimes working for a company can get you a discount. It worked for me.

At my company, I look for people who are keen, able to follow directions, and who can show up on time and consistently. Aircraft knowledge isn't a necessity since you learn what you need to know on the job.

You can start taking lessons any time and you can solo at 16, but you have to be 17 to get a private license.

I would suggest that you visit your local flight school - as first off you are not too young to start, you just can't solo until you are 16. As for jobs around the airport there are tons of things to do as washing aircraft, helping in the dispatching at the school, etc....

Line Service Technician. Those are the guys at Fixed Based Operations or FBO's fueling towing and working the ramp. If your local airport has an FBO i highly recommend getting a job there it is great learning experience and is extremely helpful in networking for an aviation career. No your not too young start you training now you have to be 17 to get your license. So if you start now you will be ahead of the game when you do turn 17. For my 16th birthday i soloed i recommend it to everyone. Good Luck

You're not too young to take lessons, you're just too young to solo.

You have to ask at your particular airport. There are sometimes opportunities to work on the flight line. You will have to work hard to earn enough for one hour of flight per week.
