The Journey To Becoming An Airline Pilot

[@Lyxtra]

I start flight school next spring, I've been working out for 2 years now and have just started running. Good luck to anyone on their flight or fitness journey!

[@Joeymiuccio]

Keep it up. Love this comment! Let’s all keep crushing it 💪🏼

That’s crazy I start next spring too I’m hype

what flight school did you choose?

[@Mess447]

Which flight school did u choose?

[@charlieedgar2646]

In the middle of my CFI rating in Canada right now, excited to start making money as a pilot. For all the student pilots out there, there is a light at the end of the tunnel!

[@castlejustin]

Sick. I’m a FI in Canada. Getting paid to fly makes it hard to complain.

[@davede1999]

Where do you guys instruct? I’m looking to start my flight training again.

[@Wizzzkhalifa]

What’s FI and CFI

[@castlejustin]

@@Wizzzkhalifa Flight Instructor, CFI the states use as certified flight instructor so anyone with the instructor rating. But in Canada CFI is Chief Flight instructor aka “the boss”.

I work as a ramp agent and my coworker just got hired at Wizzair i showed him this and he wishes you the best!

[@freshpotatolikesaviation]

This is very nice! This is very rare to see a pilot explaining in detail how they became a pilot. I hope to become a pilot in the future :D Always fly safe! 🙏

You can do it!

Hey Joey. I served in the Army for 10 years now. I'm exiting in a few months. I've been watching all your videos since last year. I really appreciate all your work to clarify everything in the aviation industry. I start my training at a 141 school soon. Your videos have really helped me create a plan during this stressful transition. Thanks for all the tips and positivity.

are you using your gi bill ?

[@Joeymiuccio]

Ayy thanks so much. Happy to help and good luck in your journey ✈️. Thanks for your service

[@rockingjunior]

[@Hikingnhell]

@@rockingjuniorhow much is it going to cost you if you don’t mind me asking I’m about to get out of the army and want to use my benefits to go to flight school

[@rockingjunior]

@@Hikingnhell about $15k out of pocket for PPL. The rest will be covered by GI Bill. VR&E (I'm claiming 20% disability) will cover the rest of the hours that get capped off in the calendar year.

[@Joeymiuccio]

I’ll probably leave this to the flight instructors. Time has passed since I was one and current flight instructors should be given you all this information better than I would

[@benvanderbok6092]

That's the dream! The main concern is balancing Flight School and College. I have my PPL, working on IFR, but college is ramping up and it's a challenge to stay on top of things in both worlds. I've also been lifting consistently for 6 years and I'm not willing to sacrifice time in the gym.

I had explored LOTS of flight schools, including Skyborne, but MFT was by far the most professional and really has their stuff together! Moved down here from Syracuse, NY, and your videos have given me added peace of mind about my decision to go with MFT. Congrats on your accomplishments in your aviation (and FITNESS) journey! Great stuff.

[@hunterhannemann2063]

Thanks man!

[@tylerb1027]

Unless you’re going to be at minimums from private to commercial, part 141 isn’t worth it IMO. Extra cost for stage checks, and waiting for them is a progress killer. Plus I read the horror stories of some 141 programs holding people back over very silly things. Nickel and dime them for as much money as possible. I did 61 PPL, 141 IRA, 61 commercial. Time building for 61 is great experience to a CRM environment and you can explore. Plus you split cost, Cheapest hours you’re going to get. 55 hours of dual plus plane rental in 141 commercial killed the deal for me. Saved me about $9k going back and building hours for 61. I quit my career, moved my family to a different state and went all in on training. Still grinding everyday to keep moving forward! Best of luck to everyone out there!

[@derekcfi]

This is great for people who are able to manage their own training. I have seen the bad side of 61 where students managing themselves fail to understand the requirements and end up repeating flights.

Hey Joey love this content, during your time going to your first cfi did you work at all while getting private or just getting your ratings? To speed things up thanks in advance for answering

[@Joeymiuccio]

I’d suggest flying and studying full time but I always worked a bit in the process

[@tomjohnson9170]

WOW I am a CFI II MEI R and I started flying at 16 and earned my private at the age of 17. My Private was earned in 1977. I went to college and earned my ratings in 4 years. Back in 1982 pilots were flying for free to earn hours. Many were broke and living under the bridge. The airlines had thousands of military pilots and if you were a civilian pilot, you had no chance of getting an airline job. The only way to get your 500 hours in a Multi engine time, was you paid for it out of your pocket. At that time there were 10 to 1 ratio instructors to students. I went to the Army and graduated from Aviation Rotary Wing course. After Army training, I still need to buy my Multi engine time. So, at that time bills needed paid and after $1,100.000.00 ( military and my costs) in training the airlines were still out of reach.

[@Joeymiuccio]

Yea thankfully times have changed since then. I’ve heard many stories like this from some of my captains and it’s always wild to hear them. You guys really had to earn it the tough way and I’m blessed to be where I’m at this early in my career

Great video Joey. Just a question, did you work a job during your training? And if you did, would you recommend working while training or just drop everything and knock it out as quick as you can?

[@Joeymiuccio]

I always did social media marketing part time but it didn’t take up too much of my time so it worked out. I would suggest dropping everything and doing it full time

[@conguito753]

I think it's kinda wild how you can only apply to airlines in the US once you have the 1500h while in the EU just with the frozen ATPL and about 250-300h you can basically apply and "easily" get a job at any low cost airline lol

I’ve taken two flights with my friend who is a CFI (3 if you include one in a Cessna 310 that I didn’t fly) and he is going to work for SkyWest in the next couple weeks. I love it!

Yea I was definitely nervous a lot in the beginning but with time you’ll get more comfortable. You got this 🤙🏽✈️

[@jacobgoulding]

Great video Joey! Appreciate all the helpful tips! I'm saving up to go all in on accelerated training full time but I'm about 12 months out. I know it's a good idea to knock out all written tests beforehand and they're good for 2 yrs.. but since I'm about 12 months out, should I wait to take the tests until closer in? Or should I just get out of the way now and be done with them knowing there will be a gap in training? Just dont want to forget any info for checkrides that may slow me down when I'm actually ready to pull the trigger.

[@Joeymiuccio]

I’d wait till your a bit closer to knock those out but you can definitely start studying asap

$10k for a private? If you flew 60 hours that’s $160 per lesson. How much did your CFI bill you and how were your plane rentals? Standard Bay Area plane rental is around $200/hr + $100/hr for a CFI
