I love your videoās. I am a cfi,cfii,mei. Iām so glad you are sharing with people why flying is amazing but the truth of commercial flying. I have lost my medical and have been paying to rent and fly with another cfi. I would be honored to meet you and shake your hand. You remind me of me at your age. Instruction can be amazing if you see it right and make it fun. I left the airlines as well after the torture of commuting. I am flying out of bend municipal in bend Oregon.
Iām starting my journey to get my PPL and eventually my CPL. I donāt have a home airport yet, but my training will be done out of KDBQ (Dubuque Regional).
Long term Iām not going to be staying in Iowa.
Also KDSM, and if you know, you know. š
being a CFI is a good thing, we need more good CFIs who genuinely love it and WANT to teach, help, and work with people, good dedicated CFI's motivate, inspire and really make a huge impact on those of us pilots in training to become the best pilots we can be !
Iāve always wanted to be a helicopter pilot, idk if I want to go through the military or just start fresh and get a hex and be in dept, but it would be amazing either way I think, which way would be best?
I quit flying right after I got my CFI. It's boring. Couldn't see doing it for a career.
Like many others, I dreamed of being an airline pilot but could not afford the flight training. I became a civil engineer and some how I always believed I missed out…until I saw your video. It's a very honest review of the life of an airline pilot. Thank you for sharing
Great video! Glad to know you found an alternative that brings you satisfaction. I'm looking forward to shaking your hand somewhere. BTW, getting to 60+ isn't the end, I bought a plane and got my ppl at 64, it's a great adventure.
Starting as a Regional FO is the ultimate Airline Wagie life. Appreciate those guys a lot!
THERE IS ONE FATAL FLAW WITH YOUR PLAN. The airlines are seniority based. While I appreciate your plan, you cannot take your approach and then 10 years later decide to go back to the airlines and have even the slightest type of career path that you would have had if you had stayed with it. I have flown for the airlines for 26 years now. I started with Mesa Airlines make $7.50 a duty hour (thatās not a typo) flying a Beech 1900, ten legs a day with no autopilot. I stuck with it and have been a major airline captain for 15 years. I canāt count how many First Officers Iāve flown with that started flying years before me that did just what you are doing. IF YOU GOAL IS TO BE AN AIRLINE CAPTAIN WORKING 3 DAYS A WEEK AND MAKING CRAZY GOOD MONEY, DO NOT FOLLOW THE ADVICE IN THIS VIDEO!!!! If you want to have zero security and float from one aviation job to the next, follow his advice.
Being a pilot is not about the money maybe selling sandwiches make more money than being a pilot but it's about the passion
