I just learned soooooooo much about the loans... Would love to watch more vids on the AA cadet academy program. Thanks bro !!😃✌👍 Keep up...your editing is just perfect.

[@expectnothing.]

Keep in mind you can get a “pilot” loan such as Meritize, which applies to training in the same fashion

Great video Michael 😃 thanks for sharing! What recommendations would you give to successfully pass your ground school? What is your current study routine?

[@MichaelHsu95]

Thank you leaving a comment, means a lot. It’s important to study a bit everyday so not only you don’t forget what you just learned, but also so you can be ahead and come into class with questions. I usually study from after class till my dinner time. I’ll have to make a video more in depth of my routine

[@desireercortez]

Michael Hsu that would be a great video to watch 😊👍

I’m a little confused. So it’s $100k but people leave the program with only 250 hours? Don’t you need 1500 hours to be certified for airlines? The website says you get certified for basically everything so I’m a little confused

[@MichaelHsu95]

Hi Austin, thanks for watching my video and leaving a comment. You leave the program with around 250 hours with all your certificates. But you will need to find your own way to get to 1500 hours to join the airlines. Most people will instruct to get their hours as it’s the fastest way. Be sure to subscribe, and feel free to reach out on instagram if you have anymore questions

[@nickbroyles6584]

So, if I was to be accepted into the program and go to Texas or California, how many hours would I expect to accumulate from start to finish?

[@anisaa8752]

100K is alot of money. what happens if you cant land a job ? I think a safe move is to get a bachlors or masters that pays well so you have something to fall back on.

[@MichaelHsu95]

You have to keep looking for jobs haha. It’s like going through college and can’t land a job. All the jobs are out there, you just got to find them

[@dlataye]

I am currently working on my credit, but meet all the other recommendations. Would I possibly be denied bc of that?

[@MichaelHsu95]

No you wouldn’t be denied or the program, but you could be denied of the loan

That seems pretty difficult to do. I don’t know how I would support three kids and my wife when I’m the only person who works on $400 a month.

Hello Micheal I am going to graduate high school in a month, is there a good chance at getting accepted into the academy with 3 flight hours? Or are they looking for individuals with hundreds of hours?

[@miguelpadilla9359]

Do they require you to have a degree upon entering the program or after completing the program when interviewing with the regional airlines ??

[@abirmahmood7096]

You need to have associates. And one other way is the student flex option then you can study and attend the flight school together. Just check their website

[@dimitrygordon2208]

Regionals don’t require any college level education. However, if you want to do Majors, you will need a bachelors degree (in anything).

[@bsharp1117]

Now a days with covid no degree is needed for any airlines

[@dimitrygordon2208]

@@bsharp1117 That would be extremely surprising considering the sudden pilot surplus, encouraging retirement for older pilots, & layoffs.

I have a few questions (I’m 16 and want to consider going to the academy right out of high school) 1. Do I need to have a college degree to transfer to the regional airlines or American Airlines? 2. If I are accepted (or want to be accepted) to a regional airline (PSA, Piedmont, Envoy), do we need to get above 350 flight hours? 3. How difficult is it to get the job at one of the three regional airlines? 4. Is the pay at regional airlines any good? 5. How long will we need to remain at one of the regional airlines before going onto mainline American Airlines?

Hi! Thanks for watching my video and leaving a comment. Yes you should definitely go right after high school No you don’t need a college degree to go to regional airlines You would need 1500 hours to be accepted into any regional airlines. The pay is great. Right now I believe it’s 90/hour at one of those airlines You would need to stay maybe 2-3 years to go to a major airline. Hope this was helpful.
