A 3 year PRE-flow interview....that is whats up! Congrats!

[@donovanknowles2641]

you mentioned endeavor being a contract regional. I believe it used to be but it is now currently wholly owned by Delta.

[@klremoval1263]

thank you for this video. i want to become a pilot so im researching now

[@tripod13mc]

How did that work out, are you in training? Very interested myself, doing the research (and playing the hell out of Microsoft Flight Simulator 🤣) and preparing to book my discovery flight.

[@DeaconChriss]

Hi did you achieve your goal?

[@alanbodker6508]

Garrett, this is awesome news about your upcoming interview. You're going to nail it, just make sure you walk in with your right foot!.. You got his buddy!!

[@vicentesulbaran307]

Great content my friend! I watched this video as extra-information for a homework at school at you accurately answered all of it. Thanks.

[@mafia5355]

The signing bonuses and increased pay is nice with the pilot shortage, but scheduling is a pain in the butt with making you work extra legs that you weren't anticipating

[@airwipe1639]

It’s quite different in Canada. With two the main airlines being WestJet and Air Canada, and frankly the only ones with a name for themselves. WestJet has Encore and Link, the former being the larger regional and being operated by WestJet, and latter being a lot smaller and operated by Pacific Coastal. Air Canada has Express and Jazz, and I’m not certain on their CRJs, but their ERJ first generation are operated by Sky Regional with their 2nd generation E190s being operated by Air Canada itself. Which is why I bring it up, the qualification are for the most part the same since you are working for a large airliner, just in a smaller plane with lower type ratings. Whereas in the US, the airlines that have regionals are always branded as so, but are operated by the likes of PSA, Wisconsin, Mesa, Compass, Skywest, so on and so on...

[@MichaelMotley]

What’s not to love about Roanoke? Awesome spot. I’ve really enjoyed your videos. Thanks for all the information buddy!

[@danielpavlick5006]

Hi Garrett - Recently just subbed and wanted to let you know I like the channel! I graduate with a finance degree this May and have a full time job lined up with an insurance company. The current plan is to use the full time job to help pay for flight school either part time or to save up and then be able to quit the insurance company for full time flight school. With any luck I could lock onto a cadet program once I get my private pilot license or just continue with flight school and hopefully get hooked up with a regional airline. I've never looked into any of this so it's all still brand new to me. Be sure to keep up the great work and great videos. Very motivating. Thanks Garrett!

[@sergiosauceda9836]

Thanks for this great info, as a tip for future videos it would be great to add some animations, photos, grafic tables etc, after a few minutes of seeing any vloger talking and talking and talking it can get a bit boring, waiting for the news on the new job, keep it up !!!!

[@fiddlyphuk6414]

Guy I flew with says his worst days at the major he flies for are still better than his best days at the regional he flew for. Pretty much sums up the difference between the two.

[@josephboyd6352]

Wondering if you could do a video about the fractionals and corporate flying

[@zacktong8105]

Increasingly Regionls are flying most of the secondary medium, city routes where as the hub to spoke seem to have greatly diminished. My nephew is coming up to Atlantic Canada for a week in August. Air Canada Jazz regional equipment ALL segments from DFW.

[@zippyman818]

Garrett just bought a house, so the new job would have to fit with living in Charlotte, I would think. Or a ton of $ to make him move and not lose anything on the new house.

[@tylerglass7310]

Great video as always. Your videos helped me make the decision to become a pilot and join ATP, so thank you. I have been doing a few videos for beginner pilots just from my experiences, but more videos focused on new pilots and direction are always helpful from someone who has been there.

[@shyamneupane4469]

That was cool that you mentioned Roanoke Virginia!!!

[@sirjasonakana]

I know your a Captain. If you get the new job will you go over as a Captain or as a First Officer. Also would you start off on smaller jets ( bigger than regional jets of course) and work your way up to the jets like the 777?

[@budguy21]

First Officer, and start on narrow body

[@Mike072385]

I'm a captain at PSA. Coming up on 3 years in Sept and about to throw my apps into several majors. We have a flow through program as well but at 10 pilots per month it has become pretty much irrelevant to anyone hired after 2017. Good luck to you brother.

Way to tell it how it is. You have got to set life priorities as a Regional pilot and make sacrifices to reach your goals. Congrats on the interview I hope you get a class date.👍🏾

If he's on a flow-through program, he wouldn't have to interview. He would just transition to American directly. How do you know he's on a flow-through?

Usually you work for a regional after you get the 1500 hours required. Majors take a little while longer to get into due to hour requirements etc

Who do you have an interview with?

[@jacquesmiller9340]

Can you go from a smaller regional jet ERJ145 into a wide body plane like Airbus A350 Boeing 777etc. once you have transitioned from regionals to majors?

[@connorhale599]

No, its all based on seniority so to get to widebodies, you'd have to be with an airline for a fairly long time.

[@charliestringer1665]

Daddy and pops been there you will be the mate..

[@alessio272]

When you say the regionals don’t have the latest and greatest, do the at least have equipment certification for Cat III ILS approaches? I’d think that’s important to have since you oftentimes deal with IMC and low minimums. I do know most regional airports don’t have those available.

[@belugaburritosupreme207]

Most have CAT II procedures/ equipment, but that depends on fleet type and certification. As you said, a lot of that depends on the airport equipment in addition to the aircraft.

[@krufiz]

Would it be possible to get into one of the major airlines such as FedEx, UPS or emirates fresh out of aviation college with a 4 year degree?

[@alanmellor8002]

Garrett, great videos. Recently, I have been looking at changing careers. I have been a Mortgage Banker for 25 years. I make some good money. But, I have always wanted to fly airplanes. I am 56 yrs old, so making a ton of money is not a priority. However, flying would be really cool. So, at my age, is there room in the Airlines? I would not mind doing the regional airlines. Quick small flights, some overnights. 80k to 90k a year is more than enough for me to live on. My life gets covered with 4000 a month. You advise is greatly appreciated!

[@natthaphonnoble7946]

Lol can’t afford both a degree and flight school, so I’m getting the hours first and then finish a degree hopefully while at regionals

[@devonk2724]

Hi! Quick question. When going from a Regional (ie: Envoy) to their parent Legacy (ie: American), do your years for seniority reset down to 1-Year?

[@rodrigochacon7273]

Should I go to school? Or just get my ATPrating ?

[@mikep9604]

Regional airlines usually don't require a college degree, but if you want later apply for a job at major airlines they probably will require a college degree.

[@budguy21]

due to the current pilot shortage most do not require a degree

[@BriggsKellogg]

I’ve noticed you have a few tattoos. I have a half sleeve on my right arm. Do you believe this would hinder my employability with an airline?

[@billwaliaula1512]

Thank you for the insight; however I have a question: now with cargo companies ( atlas air)offering a chance to get a 737 type rating and time plus possible faster upgrade, is that actually a faster route to the majors albeit sacrificing quality of life for a short time?

If i go to military when i turn 18 and stay there for a few years for aviation, how will that affect me when i go to college to become a commercial pilot?

[@blairkrutch3653]

Talking from someone in ROTC you can use the GI bill to get your ratings. If you choose to go to college to be an officer. Then you can receive a pilot slot from the military. From the knowledge I have this is kinda the best route since you get everything paid for and you get a lot of hours, and a lot of majors will hire u after your pilot commitment since you’ll have plenty of hours. But you can’t go from highschool and be a pilot in the Air Force. Hope this helps man I’m in college rn hoping for a pilot slot currently working for my private.
