I've been in piloting school for a month now, and man, the learning curve is rough. But every single time I went back up in the air to fly, it kept motivating me to push through it. Videos like this are really getting me more excited to get to this position of airline pilot, especially since it's been a dream job of mine since I was a kid.

@@isiahbrooks818 Hi! Current ATP student. I started about a month ago and I am about to transition to my TOL's eval and I and say that in a month with studying, already passing the PAR, and about 11 flights in, I am enjoying my progression a lot. It really depends on what you want your end goal to be. ATP advertises to its students that it has a fast track program to the airlines. A lot of that fast track progression is because of the self study that each student puts in and the constant flying that we have as well. Although if you are interested in pursuing a career in aviation, I would do research first. Regardless of choosing ATP or a different flightschool, the cost of all of the training and progression towards the checkrides can be pricey. If you haven't already, I would go on a discovery flight with a local flight school to really get the feel of flying in one of their training aircraft to see if it is the right choice for you.

[@fireflyrobert]

I'm in the UK and things are very different over here. Especially with budget carriers it can be very difficult to get a day off when you want one and the amount of seniority you have makes no difference whatsoever. The pay is a lot less than $100 an hour for FO - halve that figure and you'll be about right. There are no or negligible staff travel concessions unless you make it to the likes of BA. I'm not trying to rain on your parade Garrett and I really enjoy your videos and I would agree that being an airline pilot has many plus points but I think it's important that guys this side of the pond go into the career with their eyes open. It's not until they are able to graduate to the likes of BA or Emirates that they will see terms and conditions approaching those in the USA that you mention.

I love this! The only downfall is getting through flight training and the massive cost. With the profits all these airlines are making you would think they would start recruiting cadets and footing the bill of training until they can get the 1,500 TT flight hours. In turn candidates sign contracts binding them to time owed for x amount of years. Once this is done, I can almost guarantee, your shortage will diminish. Grab people off the streets and put them through training. All these airlines can afford to do so, I guantee it.

Depending on your financial situation, 4 years in the military could be a good option. The Post 9/11 GI Bill can pay for your flight ratings at specific colleges, while also paying you a monthly housing allowance. If you're not interested in a 4-year degree to go with your flight training, there are other options to use the GI Bill for flight training but I don't believe it will cover the full cost of all the ratings. There are much faster options if you're willing and able to take on a lot of debt.

@@jd8184 It's been a few years since I've looked up options other than 4-year degrees for GI Bill funded flight training. When I last checked only certain flight schools were eligible and there was a yearly cap that would not even cover the cost of the Instrument Rating. 4-year programs at places like University of Alaska Anchorage will charge Instrument rating as a lab course. There is still a cap on how much the GI Bill will cover for each flight lab so if you require more than the standard syllabus you may need to pay some flight costs out of pocket. Also, You can get a restricted ATP with a 4-year degree.

G MAN - I just non revved D2R LAS LAX with a 44 year old AA 373 FO in his 4th year with AA - he told me 3 guys in his new hire class have upgraded to 737 Captain making about $280K per year on reserve . He also KNOWS your KZbin channel . He and a BUNCH of your fellow APA members DO NOT LIKE that you are uploading VLOGS wearing CAPTAIN STRPE uniform. He says he’s reporting this o your LGA APA Base Chairman AND LGA AA Base Flight ops manager , suggests you wear proper AA uniform 😂❤

Greetings & Happy Holidays. Thank you for these very informative videos. I'm curious, where did you go to school to learn to fly? Also, what pilot pipeline program did you select coming out of school?

[@pali4ever889]

2:34 Will this also apply if you're flying with someone?

[@irubenguler]

Please do a video on how to get your certificates while working. Please!!! Love your videos

[@pdeetv]

I like your bracelet :)

[@atomabc]

Thank you. I got my commercial license. But I need to get in the hours. Without working for an airline, you can’t get the hours. Catch 22. I wish I had joined a cadet scheme. Then at least all is covered. I spent £100,000. Minimum. But hopefully il get something soon. At present just business ventures with are ok

[@richieingram2595]

hey garret do you know the difference of pay between canadian and american airline pilots. Is there much of a difference at all between the two?

[@LL-dl9vx]

What do you think about the new trend everyone is discussing? In the near future, there might be only one pilot operating an aircraft. I am now also started the flight school but now I think about this and I dont know how it will be? Just want to hear from you. Thanks

[@Jprager]

Traveling and Seeing the world would bet biggest motivation in becoming a pilot, but honestly some of the close calls in the air from unruly passengers to problematic aircrafts would be my biggest concern.

[@peterwakeman9930]

Lucky you being happy flyer....well done

[@benman1407]

when you say days off.. is that annual? or monthly?

[@3ZTN2]

Is being a pilot really as stressful as people say it is? I kinda wanna become a pilot when I grow up but I wanna know what I’m getting into.

Ikr

[@nikobelic4251]

It consistently ranks in the top 10 most stressful profession, usually at #3 behind active duty military and firefighter. It does get very stressful and the lifestyle is stressful as well… and what’s frustrating is that many people don’t think so because they think the autopilot flies the plane and the pilots sit there and do nothing until something breaks (not true at all by the way) But you get to fly a jet and once you go home, unless you have recurrent coming up you don’t have homework, you don’t bring work home with you. As someone who is studying for their first regional pilot job it’s 100% worth it.

[@lalalalalalallalallal]

when it comes to quality of life, finding the best corporate pilot job is the way to go. When it comes to money and longevity, its the legacy airlines.

[@derrick2251]

Can you elaborate on why that is. Student pilot here confused on which route to take.

[@lalalalalalallalallal]

@@derrick2251 my current job has me flying to Europe, Hawaii, Asia and domestic with at least a 5 day layover with 14 days off a month. I’ve been to Iceland and Greece with a 13 day layover so you’re getting paid while having a free vacation since lots of corporate jobs pay salary not hourly.

[@mio2540]

if u enjoy being on call for 15 days a month then sure i guess it is. and unless you're personally dating the daughter of a millionaire, getting a 91/135 job will be pretty competitive. rich folks love flying to nice places so u shud def try it out at least. it was a nice break from flying to EWR, JFK, ATL, MDW all the time.

[@ATCguy83]

Nah, be an Air Traffic Controller. 17 years in and the best job ever!

[@StrictlySports]

na pilot better

[@phillp7777]

gotta retire at 56 right? that suckks

[@CoasterGuy787]

I rather manipulate yoke/stick and throttles and enjoy the fun of flying and transporting people from one place to another, visiting new places and feeling like a boss moving such an awesome machine than to sit on a chair in a tower, watching screens of aircraft moving around and instructing each of them on what to do next. That's just me tho. The world needs ATC of course.

[@spenceragnew717]

As current ATC, in transition, I'd rather fly. Plus, that pay gap is massive. I like ATC, but I love flying.

[@Mike_Cant_Golf]

My dad was ATC at DFW... him and my mom didn't last long... he brought the stress home. But good pay lol. But I missed the age cut for ATC. And I don't think my gf would like me being a pilot and being gone. I'd love that night time view from the cockpit though 😍

[@PathsTaken7]

What if I only just get 4-5 in my GCSE’s?

[@michaelw2108]

Wow I’m sold, I’m working on my ppl
