Airline Pilot - A Week In The Life

In this video, I'm going to show you what a week in the life of an airline pilot in line training.
I am currently doing my line training on the Airbus A320 which is my first flying post base training. In this video, I will be showing you what a line training student's typical week looks like. For my line training, I am based out of London Stansted Airport, which is where I'll be based for this video. The week was full of flying and different challenges as you'll see in the video.
I hope you all enjoy and remember to leave a like, comment and SUBSCRIBE

I’ve never been more happy to see a KZbin notification! Please please pleaseeee upload more. I’m 16 and got 2 more years till I can even begin flight training! This is the best insight I get into day to day life! KEEP IT UP!

[@PilotOli]

Wow thanks so much! It means a lot. I do try to upload, but unfortunately it’s so hard with my job to have time and edit!

[@michaeljohndennis2231]

Wishing you the very best of luck with your flight training and I do hope that all goes well for you ❤

[@michaeljohndennis2231]

@@PilotOliI do agree, as it is incredibly difficult to juggle the two, yet you are also clearly doing very well - it’s great to see that you have secured a First Officer position with an airline though ❤

[@yousefquranicproductions]

Same am 16 too

[@jovontenicoles1128]

What do you mean you can start training at anytime in the US you just have to 17 to solo to really you have 1 year

[@spotzidog5110]

I'm a fair bit older than you, but I find it really inspiring to seem someone so young who is already an airline pilot! Find it very refreshing. Keep it up and enjoy

[@iitqrxz]

Can't wait to watch this, I love your content and you're inspiring me more and more to push myself for my dream of becoming a pilot.

[@danielpl6876]

Do it I have just qualified as a private pilot, and it is a dream that a couple years ago I thought would never be possible. So if your not sure if you want to go the whole way and pay the 80k then I would suggest doing the PPL and then considering your options.

[@martinhorsley6238]

Wow I’m so happy for you oli, I’m now 54 and got my ppl 4 years ago. I absolutely loved the training and love the flying. I so much wish I had the money at your age to do what you’re doing now and how passionate you are about it. Full respect, you have a wonderful future in front of you ❤

[@Sharkface590]

I am so happy for you!!! I’m love aviation ❤

[@CggjHhfas]

Congratulations, love youre videos and you keep giving me the determination to achieve my dream. I’m currently 15 in school working at a golf club whilst trying to pay for my ppl over time! So watching youre videos keep giving me the desire to keep working 💪

[@simplylisting1654]

Amazing video keep it up! Could you make a video of things you didn’t expect about being an airline pilot

[@PilotOli]

Thanks for the idea!

[@thank.u]

I was so happy when this appeared on my bell screen. Love your videos. Keep it up!

[@PilotOli]

Thanks! Will do!

[@danielpl6876]

Big inspiration as I commence my commercial pilot training and further cement the want to do both a UK CAA licence and EASA, and can not wait to get into the flight deck

[@PilotOli]

Good luck!

[@lukebyrne3715]

Love watching your vids, I would love to fly Lauda 320 but sounds like by the time I will be able to do it they will change over to the 737.☹️

[@Celestenshi]

Pilot oli I want to be just like you someday you're such an inspiration to me. I'm unsure if my eyesight is good enough to be a pilot but I really hope it is

[@alexwebster2798]

Enjoyed this one! Nice to see what line training looks like. Feeling like i'm close to doing the same, gets me excited for the future!

[@ivorduke3575]

Good stuff Oli sim pilot enjoying the real world , look at swayne United pilot and his cockpit shots , uses empty cockpit etc !

[@samreen3881]

I absolutely LOVE your videoss!! They give me so much inspiration and I can literally pictures myself in your position some time soon!!

[@darraghpratt7719]

Congrats Oli, look forward to seeing your future videos. Best of luck with your career 🎉

Amazing video! Your channel deserves more subs. 😍😍

[@user-if2zt5gk6o]

Just came across your channel.Really good insight.wish you the best.

[@michaeljohndennis2231]

I agree with you wanting to visit Rome in more depth, as I love the Italian culture, food and way of life - obviously being a Catholic, I’d especially love to visit the Vatican, especially St Peter’s Square and the Sistine Chapel - I can only imagine that a lot of Bishops, Cardinals, Priests and Nuns travel on these flights too

[@juliusnepos6013]

Congratulations

[@thebrothersadventureco.6350]

i love your videos you are helping me acheive my dream of becoming a full pilot a 20 i am thirteen and hoping to get my private liscance at fifteen

[@Ggghibqckoh]

hopefully in your late 20s you'll be able to fly the a380. it is a masterpiece.

[@PilotOli]

Would be an absolute dream!

[@garethmorgan1282]

Hopefully one day they will allow you to camera up on one of the flights. Well done

[@Certiwhipps]

Late Nights are always more fun than early mornings omg

[@OceTen]

Lag nights in the middle of June 😈

[@ammaar_k]

Great video ✈

[@alexcurmi7412]

Love your videos! What’s it like trying to adjust between late and early flights? And how often do you get to see your family considering you work some weekends and at night?

[@PilotOli]

I go home to visit my family every 4 days off. So at least get to spend the evenings with them if the 4 days off are during the normal working week. Adjusting was quite hard at first, but after a few months I’m used to it.

[@alexcurmi7412]

@@PilotOli thanks so much! I’m starting training next year. Good luck on your journey

[@abdu11ah_m]

Love the content. I was wondering when you join a flight school and get a ukcaa license, can you then fly for Emirates for example at some point in the future?

[@PilotOli]

Yes I believe they will convert the licence if you have the requirements

[@zahidshabbir554]

Stay blessed brother..weldon

[@pilotmicah]

Great video 📹 im not sure if you had mentioned it in previous videos. How many hours did you have before getting the airline job ?

[@PilotOli]

Yes I think I mentioned previously, I was straight out of flight school so about 160

[@tullywoolly]

​@@PilotOliA lot of videos mention 1500 hours. Is this more of an American thing? I was thinking of going through the full training on part-time basis. That number feels a lot more achievable! I was looking at aeros as they seem to offer part time fast track.

[@mikep9604]

@@tullywoolly It is a requirement in the US. In Europe, this amount is not required.

[@SheffieldBoys]

Hi Oli great stuff, quick question do you think is it worth it to get dual license?

[@PilotOli]

Yes, absolutely! I wouldn’t have my job today if I didn’t get dual licence

[@fasttrack2612]

Hi Oli, can you share on how you prepared for the pilot maths test and psychometric assessments (eg logical reasoning) and the resources you used?

[@PilotOli]

Great idea!

[@fasttrack2612]

Oh I forgot, also what physics knowledge is required. Thanks!

[@AntoniosSpiliotopoulos]

How did you pay for flight school? Great vid btw! Would love to see a more detailed version some day! 😊

[@PilotOli]

Hi, glad you enjoyed the video! A mixture of student loans, saving up myself and help from the parents!

[@AntoniosSpiliotopoulos]

@@PilotOli Thanks! I think I will be able to do it the same way as you.

It was indeed!

Does this pilot look like Morgz😂😂😂😂 Am even more interested now

[@nadylag9226]

Thank you for the video! Where do you think I should learn atpl?

[@PilotOli]

Lots of different options! Research everywhere

[@fasttrack2612]

Congratulations bro, what is your dream aircraft to fly?

[@PilotOli]

A380 has always been a dream of mine!!! Second to that is A350. Also hope before I retire I’ll fly supersonic

[@fasttrack2612]

I'm more of a Boeing guy :D, but the A380 is a dream for everyone, good luck@@PilotOli

[@gabriellawrence9646]

Hi oli, great video as always. I am just wondering if you know how much more difficult the atpl ground school exams are than the ppl exams ?

[@PilotOli]

I never did to ppl ones, but to my knowledge, ATPL are quite a bit harder and require a lot more study!

[@gabriellawrence9646]

@@PilotOli thankyou very much oli, I am 16 and doing my ppl but the main goal is to get my atpl and become an airline pilot. So you are my biggest inspiration atm !

[@paultilly]

Are you not limited to a 25hr week ?

[@kacperjarzabek7869]

What salary would a pilot in your career phase look at approximately?

[@PilotOli]

It really depends the country and what airline

[@tullywoolly]

This would be quite useful to know as I'm thinking of a career change. A lot of videos on KZbin are Europe or American based.

[@gmdmango2862]

question: did you have to do a levels to enter a flight school. if so, which a levels would be the most helpful.

[@PilotOli]

It’s not a requirement but it is recommended. I would suggest maths and physics to be most helpful

[@gmdmango2862]

@@PilotOli thanks 👍

[@xavier3930]

​@@PilotOliI am currently doing maths and physics in a level but struggling alot will that be a problem?

[@Aerotrinamic]

Dude don’t you have dispatch? There’s only so much you can do the day prior😅

[@vicmacarra]

They will let you rev the lambo :D

[@Jonthebard]

I Failed School from a academic point of view, I was wondering do you have to be academically inclined to become a pilot?

[@flying.fitness.]

I believe most flight schools and airlines just require you to pass your GCSEs in Maths, Physics, English and another 2 (subjects don’t matter). The hardest requirement is the financial aspect of it all.

[@Alex10121]

If you failed school you wouldn't be able to get into an integrated course, but provided you have the money you could start flight training on a part time basis

[@airbxnee]

I was awful with school when I was younger, didn't leave with much. Trained modular in my own time and now flying 737's around 👍🏽 it's doable!

[@zakariaalsheikh4386]

Bro when you will be an a official pilot in the company and stop be a trainer? and can you make a video of the commercials company and what is the process to have this type rating

[@PilotOli]

I have already finished all my training now! Videos are just a bit behind. You can follow my insta to keep more up to date if you wish

[@Beiditoo]

Is there a way I can contact you I'm 15 in year 11 and have some really important questions that yt cant answer.

[@simplylisting1654]

What do pilots do during the majority of the flight whilst in autopilot???

[@PilotOli]

Prepare for the descent and arrival, sometimes I like to read over different manuals as there is so much to learn! But also a lot of chatting!

[@lewisjwa5356]

What airline do you work with ?

how did you fund your flight school?
