At this point, I am convinced that United doesn’t care about flight training at all and United Aviate Academy is just a poster child for its “good leads the way” marketing message because whenever they talk about the school they only talk about how many women and minorities are at the school but never discuss any actual flight training accomplishments or achievements.

Hey bro it's good to have you back after like a life time 😊

Nice, My Favourite Aviation KZbinr is back!!

I see a Tina

The world's greatest transportation aircraft as described by Juan Browne the Boeing 757. Great to see you again Swayne.

Welcome back & congrats 🥳 thanks for this awesome video 🤩

Can’t believe it’s been a whole year. Love your content and happy you’re back!

Where have you been, man?!!!!! Welcome back 🥹

So glad I stumbled upon this channel.. Very interesting.. I remember going from Newark to Prague and thinking the pilot looks like he just graduated high school --- not being mean just did not expect such a youthful looking pilot. The flight was great and was on United.

Swayne, I don't know if you remember me but I met you at O'Hare several months ago. It's amazing to see you back to uploading videos! I love your videos, it's very informative and I enjoy every thing you post! Keep up the great work brother!

congrats swayne ı wısh you succes youre job

What’s the advantage to the pilot flying?

Oh thank god you're back! Your video dispels the rumors you went to work for Aerosucre. To stop such rumors please give us frequent update videos.

Love following your progress brotha. Love the videos.

If you change domiciles does it affect your seniority?

Amazing video I'm new to your channel did you fly for a regional prior to united your name is familiar I'm based in chicago my self thanks

Hi I am one of the PAC Avionics guys that at ORD checks and fixes the IFE system of the 767s and 757s you fly with. I like your videos ! Maybe one day we can meet at T5 🤣 Andrea

Big question, work in Africa my company is buying a 767 for cargo op, would you recommend doing the type rating. A bit worried because a lot of people are telling me it is outdated and it will be harder to find a job afterwards compared to a 737 type for example. What would you say?

we have been waiting for you .keep us posted

I love how it's possible with real content

Great to see a new video. Guess you probably aren't flying today, but regardless we are on I believe a 737 so you wouldn't be flying us anyhow. Hope to end up on one of your flights, or maybe see you around ORD area.

Great vid.....and so well presented. All the best to you in your career.

Great to see you back!!!

Will you be able to film from the cockpit, or is against United Policy?

I love this as I am in the lab and thinking of starting my own private jet company

Do you miss the 175??? I know you want to progress in the company but we all remember our starter

Sweet!

Welcome back, Swayne! Great quality video as always. Keep ‘em coming!

"Only 12 flights", sheesh you work hard, NOT! Long haul, we were flying 80 hours a month, many time around the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@swayne good to see you 😊how like Chicago from Chicago illion😊

Great Job Thanks travel Enjoy Life!

Traded 16 days off to 13 ? Here I am, in an european airline where 10-11 days off per month are the norm..... Europe needs to improve on working conditions !

Love you ❤

I'm happy to see your back I'm from the San Francisco area I live in Arizona now but my brother lives in San Francisco he's a first responder paramedic be safe and safe flying ✈️✈️

I follow quite a few of Airline Pilot youtubers and I've heard of them mentioning about seniority and benefits of it. However, no one wen in depth like you did. Thank you for this. It was a very informative video.

Great post - love the 757. Please post more regarding that iconic airliner

Im a low cost pilot oin asia with 4 days off. Listening to you said 13 days off is so little is just mind blowing. Lol

What a pitty you fly united, one of the most unfriendly airlines🤮

Real proud of you, Swayne, You are truly getting the most out of life. Fo;;owing you since Hawaii has been a lot of fun and very educational for this old airline wrench. Keep up the great work and keep flying until they make you stop!

Good to see you back and hopefully one day we can cross paths...

Great to see you back with another brilliant video. You do a great job with them. Congratulations on your position. Hope you enjoyed Dublin which is where I’m from, but now live in Western Australia.

Hi Swayne! I just wanted to ask you advice on whats the best way to pursue a career at United as a pilot! Thanks!

Want to see Swayne in Iceland!

Best pilot videos. Keep them coming

Glad your back

Seems weird that the safety vest needs the word PILOTon it when you’re wear in a white shirt and tie.

You got to fly a special livery wohoo

My dream is to become a pilot but its probably hard

Watched a video the other day of a A380 over 7 days flew 34,000 miles and a 777 that flew 48,000. Amazing how much these planes are in the air.

Future video idea: To the extent you're able to arrange it, and without interfering with the process, perhaps you could cover recurring training from the perspective of a younger guy who doesn't already have many years and thousands of hours in type. I could imagine working out an arrangement with UAL such that a video could be approachable for the general public who know little/nothing about the ongoing training pilots go through to train for not only the "boring" routine flights but also the unexpected. Though some "aviation insider"-focused KZbinrs have talked about how scenarios derived from actual experiences have been integrated into recurrent training - Perhaps you could put together a piece looking at that as a more passenger-facing presentation showing how safety has dramatically improved in recent times. While I realize its probably best to not cite recent incidents (at any airline) specifically, a broader overview might be useful to assuage some individuals that, no, airplanes don't (normally) "fall out of the sky" even if something does go wrong... Not only are airplanes engineered to minimize risk even if something goes sideways, pilots are also trained in an ongoing basis to further limit risk.
