I want to be a pilot for my career, I'm not exactly sure what kind of pilot I want to be yet, I already have my student pilot certificate and third class medical certificate so I am ready to start flying, but I want to know what certifications I will need to get and what the requirements (hours needed, tests required, anything like that) are to get all of them and get a job flying. Also I've gotten mixed answers as to what the requirements are for becoming a flight instructor (I've heard that you need to have a commercial pilot certification and that you don't), what are the requirements for this?
