The airline industry is finally recovering with hiring across the board! What do you want to learn about becoming an airline pilot?

[@shaanpatel7777]

Sooo I want to become a pilot and I want to know which all courses to take and what all subjects to study. So pls make a video on how to become a pilot after 12th

[@wj8003]

hey swayne! i would love to learn the process after university. i will be starting my freshman year at the ohio state university this fall and i have a private pilot certificate. i want to know how to transition from instructor to airlines

[@daltonperkes7202]

For me personally i am wondering if i would enjoy flying wide body international, or narrow body regional when i get to that position. I understand you dont have a ton of experience with wide body flying but i think that would be a very neat video.

[@shaanpatel7777]

@@wj8003 that's what I said

[@lucasdejager]

I would really like to understand the complex process of financing my dream career. Like you, I am currently enrolled at UND as a freshman, but still don’t understand the financial side of collegiate aviation, and debt after school. Any feedback is much appreciated.

[@ocscmike]

This is the difference between a pilot with a KZbin channel and a cinematographer with a pilot's license. Beautiful, inspiring content as always.

[@SwayneMartinPilot]

Thanks Mike!

[@houdaouaaziz2560]

So happy to see you again 👍

[@larryrobinson8427]

Hello there Swayne! I’ve watched your videos from the time you first joined Envoy, and your articulate the real world of flying, and especially regional flying as well . I especially like seeing a true picture painted by you to aspiring pilots. I just retired from Envoy in May of 2020, having flown there for 31 years, flying the 145 for just under 11,000 hours on it, and retiring on the E175, and I enjoyed every minute of it! The way you explain not just the flying end as a pilot, but also how you blend in the jobs of all the support team members at Envoy is especially refreshing. Take care and I look forward to your next video. Your videos are slick and professionally done, I know that Envoy has a very good PR presence in helping you make these informative videos, and I’m just disappointed that I wasn’t able to fly with you before my mandatory retirement at age 65. Regards Capt Larry Robinson/Retired

[@MPIEMDRailfan4]

Crazy how I started watching these videos as a zero-time student pilot. I am now a brand-new private pilot (about a month since the checkride), watching the world reopen. So cool how quickly things are getting back to normal. Let’s hope it continues. These videos bring me back to the olden days.

[@SwayneMartinPilot]

Right?! I'm so happy to see things getting back to normal.

[@mintyaviation2376]

Nothing much is really changing over here in the UK. Glad to see stuff moving in the US though!

[@Napouille]

Same, I started to follow him as a Law student with zero flight time, 3 years later I'm frozen ATPL and I passed my instrument rating on multi engine aircraft 2 days ago ☺️

[@mwd331]

The world is definitely not getting back to normal, look at the rest of the world outside of the United States.. global passenger numbers are disastrously low, years from how they were. Spare a thought for the millions working in the global travel industry who are still in a serious way.

[@NickPriest]

Nice video mate! Good to see the industry is starting to recover!

Checking in From eleuthera! 🇧🇸

[@AEROSTARCAPT]

Enjoy your video, Eleuthera was one of my first Bahama flights in a Cherokee 180 back in 1977 shortly after I got my pilots license. Now in 2021 I’ve stopped flying not for medical reasons. I’ve owned and flown in Aerostar since 1990 but this year I couldn’t buy any insurance. At 80 nobody wants to ensure you.Your video brought back pleasant memories, you look like you have at least 50 years of lying in front of you enjoy it all.

[@byronhenry6518]

50 years of lying? What is he, a lawyer? Lol

[@damianstalker775]

Love that you have including some of your radio calls in a CTAF environment. Keep it up you’ve inspired me a lot to continue my flight training ever since your flight in Hawaii

[@CaptCap25]

Flew in and out of N Eleuthera a few days ago. Two American and a Delta were on the ground. First time that I’ve been in there with more than one regional at a time. Had to back taxi to the first 7 exit because they had the ramp completely blocked.

[@Spray-N-Pray]

Very cool Envoy is letting in more of the cockpit content. It's just good PR for them. They are going to be hiring a lot of pilots soon, so I hope they keep this up with you. Nice work as always Swayne

[@hawkeyeaviation572]

Awesome video! Very Inspiring, thanks for creating. Sure hope to become a pilot!

[@timgraymatter]

I was excited to see you in the right seat when I boarded my flight home from ORD to LSE this morning. Keep up the good work! I hope to see you in the left seat soon!

[@EarthToneFilmsPlanet]

Hey Swayne. I’m a retired 777 Captain and I did a video in the 80’s called A 747 Pilots Eye View as i was a People Express Captain on it back then. (Some people have put it on Utube) Not nearly as good as yours, but the first ever airline cockpit video (that became a SPORTYS VHS best seller) and ignited a path that thousands of utubers have followed in my footsteps since then with cockpit videos. (Plus i inspired and I am aware of helping a dozen people become airline pilots) I have a personal interest in Eleuthera, and I’m writing a screenplay about the abandoned secret military base on the island. (for real) Keep the blue side up and good luck in your career. Paul Havis.

[@SwayneMartinPilot]

Thank you Paul! I’ll check it out

[@paulm2861]

Your videos never quit getting better. I've been flying since 1991 and always learn something new from you. Thank you!

[@joshlaws1300]

I've watched your videos off and on, but really enjoyed you including more things like the RNAV approach plate, showing how there's no PAPI/VASI, and the different VFR/IFR rules for the area. A good mix of entertainment (like seeing the conch fritters/travel) and knowledge of aviation.

There are sometimes when I watch your videos that I wish I became an airline pilot instead of joining the U.S. Air Force. Not that I have any regrets over my choice of career but you have a unique way of making your job sound so appealing that you’re inspiring your viewers to become pilots which I think is awesome.
