hi there. its an average paying field with a great difficulty in findin jobs. espec if ur non american as it involves sensitive issues. jobs only in nasa, airforce and other aerospace companies. most docs are pilots themselves. knew a staff sergeant in fighter squadron from ethopia who did a ms in aerospace related study and gave up tryin for md aerospace med. its a good 2nd residency to do after ur md in internal medicine. bcoz if u dont get a job - then u have somethin to fall back on for bringin home the bacon apurva
