Hey man. My story parallels yours so much. I am 41 and with the support of my wife, went to flight school a year and a half ago. I blew through training and work 7 days a week as a CFI now. I have ATP/CTP in August for my airline and your videos are really helpful. Love to get an update. From one “old guy” to another….good for you for following your dream.

That's awesome! I finished training in January. Finished IOE in February. Was on reserve through april. And now in May I'm a line holder and starting to feel really comfortable in the job. I've got just over 100 hours of turbine time. I need to get off my butt and make new videos. I have several scripts ready to go but I've been busy/lazy. If you contact me through social media, I'll give you more specifics and my personal info.

I’m 36 and going to an accelerated course in 6 months. I started flying helicopters when I was 19. Long story but I never finished and went down a different path. It’s never been a better time to become a pilot and I’m not getting any younger. I’ve decided to go back and finish my original dream. Except this time I’m going fixed wing. I’m studying hard to knock out my written tests before I start. Thanks for your videos I can’t wait to be where you are!

Hi man, Very nice vid. I'm currently a pilot in French polynesia and looking to get an FAA ATP. I was wondering how did you prepare for the ATM? Heard sheppard was the best to prepare the test but was looking to get the gleim book to study before. What's your thoughts? Safe landings on the ERJ (if you're still on it)
@pilotjamie1176 Жыл бұрын
Sheppards is by far the best option by far! I am on the ERJ still, I'm actually sitting in KORD right now, we just timed out for the day so we are dead heading back to Boise to pick up the rest of our trip. Best of luck on the FAA ATP! Hit me up if you have any questions.
