Pro-Pilot Playbook Podcast #38 // Buying Time

In this episode we answer Gabriel's question about buying rental aircraft time in bulk, sometimes called buying block time. We also discuss whether it would be wise to just buy all the time required to get the airlines versus working as a flight instructor.

I took a discovery flight over in Tyler, Texas the day before Halloween, and loved every minute of it. I drive a 18 wheeler cross country and am looking into getting into corporate/charter flying. Just wanted to say thanks for all of the free information, and that y'alls channel makes me realize that this thing is definitely within reach.

QUESTION: Does glider or light sport time count toward the 1500 for the ATP?

[@thesportskid3987]

Been waiting so long for this video 😂

Wow. I thought one of ATP's big selling point was the multi engine time. 100k when airlines aren't requiring anything but a multi rating could change my decision. There is a school called Sky Warrior in Pensacola that advertises a similar time frame, but much cheaper in mostly single engine. I really enjoyed Jamal's insight about ATP. I'd love it if you could get someone from Sky Warrior.

QUESTION: If I offer to purchase block flying time from someone, how much of a discount should I realistically ask for?---How much for 100, 200, 300hrs??
