UPDATE: I've now published a video dedicated to explaining the benefits of accelerated flight training. You can watch it here: • Is Accelerated Flight ...
If you are a guy in his late 40s or early 50s and you’re dreaming about becoming a professional pilot because you are no longer fulfilled by what you are doing now, I’ve got good news for you…
You’re not too late…and as you’re going to see in this video….I’m living proof that you can rapidly accumulate all the pilot certifications you need to make it all happen in about 15-16 months.
Let me explain….
On April 21 of this year, I published a video that explained my plan to earn six figures as an airline pilot, starting at age 53 and within a week, that video was viewed over 115,000 times.
Having now completed my flight training over the last 3 months, I want to provide you with an updated video on what is possible in terms of accelerated training, what it costs, what to watch out for etc…

✅ How to Get All Your Ratings For Under $50K • How Much Does It Cost ...

👋 About Me 👋
After a successful business career where I've started and sold a number of companies, I've decided to get out from behind my computer to pursue a lifelong passion and start career 2.0 as a professional pilot. My goal is to get to 1500 hours and then either work for a large regional, a major, or possibly even cargo. Once my flight training is done, I will work as an independent CFI until I have reached the 1500 hours needed to get hired by one of the above. You can learn more at www.FlyWithTrent.com.

Trent, this is awesome, I’m a 42-year-old Police Lieutenant and I have eight years to go to retirement. I’m currently working on my private pilots license and when I retire at age 50 my plan is to have a second career as an airline pilot. You have no idea how much motivation this video has given me. Seriously gives me something exciting to look forward to. Thank you!

As an ambitious guy who has gone through the last 4 years of flight training, I can tell you that this video is 99.99% not possible. Your 8 licenses will cost you more than you budgeted, will depress you beyond belief, won’t be possible for 50% of attempted pilots. I actually do think it’s worth pursuing though, but have all the facts before you commit.

Don’t underestimate the amount of work Trent had to put into get this done in that amount of time. It took me 4 years degree + 2 years of CFI to acquire all the knowledge to become an airline pilot. If you don’t have above average intelligence and aren’t willing to study every breathing moment, extend your time line. Just being realistic here.

I agree with you…and I’ve done my best to make that clear in my videos. I’ve generally excelled at most things in life and flying falls into that bucket. Plus, I was in a position to do this full time….and if I wasn’t, it would have taken a lot longer.

I teach my film students, "It's not what you know, or who you know; it's who knows you. You can know all the people in the world, but if they don't know you exist, nothing is going to happen. So place yourself in the direct path of the people you'd like to meet." That comment toward the end of the video about being present at the airport, which potentially leads to more flight instruction bookings, struck a chord with me. That is so important! Great information in this video! All the very best with your aviation endeavors!

Thanks Trent .I am a burned out truck driver and to be honest with you, I don’t have an access to much guidance as far as moving forward. I’ve been sitting on my finished ground school portion and trying to figure out if moving forward is a worthy endeavor, shooting past 40years of age and wondering if I’ll be able to support myself after getting commercial license and not having enough time to get a job flying. So, videos like these do help. There aren’t many of them online though.

Hey again Trent. Congrats on getting all your certifications!! Nicely done! I’ve been following you since you posted your first video. I’m in a similar situation as you. I’m 42, have my PPL, haven’t flown in a long time (22 years) but want to get back into it and get all my qualifications. I live in Canada so the process may be a bit different than yours. But I’m encouraged. I’m just waiting on my aviation document book as well as my medical before I can start. Once I get those I’m gonna get going. My goal is to fly and study full time to expedite things.

So inspiring Trent! I just finished "writing" most of my tests including Advanced Ground Instructor, just one more to go later this week which is FIA. After that probably will go do all the simulator hours, then finding a local CFI to get more dual instrument hours before my Instrument checkride. What sucks is that my plane is undergoing an overhaul which is costing a LARGE sum of cash out of pocket. Considering instructing out of my own plane when it's all done, that way I can get paid for both instruction time and time for renting out my own plane. That might just be enough for me to replace my current income. Regardless, because of you, I joined SkyWest Cadet program, you've been a true inspiration for those of us that are a bit older (I'm 47) and aspiring to be a professional pilot. Hope to meet you one day.

I am 42 with a Private Pilot and about 80 hours. I'd like to return to flight training and have been trying for a number of years... but life has just got in the way at every pass. I am taking drastic steps now by selling my small business and getting minimal responsibilities. I have a wife and 3 kids but we own our property and our vehicles. As soon as the business sells, I'll be debt free and have a little extra to get started on my instrument rating. We'll see how it goes. I may go back into the IT industry to continue to pay for the rest of the ratings. I won't be able to do it fast like you did, simply because I don't have the money and I don't want loans.

It might take a little longer than you, but I feel like I have your level of motivation, as this would be a dream I have thought about since I was 7! Good luck with your flight instructing.

Hi, Trent, awesome video as always! I am also in my 50s and will be looking to replicate your system and see if I can also succeed. I just took my first class medical but am severely colorblind so will have to do a one time test with the FAA to see whether I can ever get to ATP or not. Either way I'm excited to give it my best shot. Respect to you for inspiring so many of us!

I turn 35 in April. I’m currently in a stuffy office, working as a private banker, getting lazy and out of shape more and more every day. I have played Microsoft flight simulator since I was 12, been obsessed with commercial flight since then. So the other night I was sitting next to my wife as I was flying a b747 to her home state showing her all the bells and whistles and she asked me “Why didn’t you become a pilot?” That stuck with me…cause I didn’t have a good reason. Never really looked into it. Always thought it was out of grasp. Suffice to say right now I’m working hard to get in shape and healthier (I am healthy) just could be a lot better before I start having issues that would ground me. I am going to flight school.

Great info! In my case, at age 58, I blocked 4 months for training and achieved my Commercial cert and Instrument rating, and finished with my CFI/Airplane. Although my brain feels like oatmeal, yes, it can be done! In our neck of the West Virginia woods (I18), we're doing Part61 training in C150s and Cherokee 140s from $110 to $140 an hour. Our goal is to have our pilots complete their Private/Commercial/IFR program at half the cost of ATP schools. Should be interesting!

Congratulations once again.. words cannot describe the motivation brought on by your inspiration! Everything on piont, well researched and illustrated! I've most appreciated the insight on career opportunities and actual real time frames and what to expect. I as well have definitel plans on arriving 🛬 at a legacy airline.

Thanks Trent! Very inspirational. I'm 54 with about 90 hours. Getting ready for my PPL checkride in a month or so. Been at this for about a year here in Denver. We've had insane weather this past year. I have a sweet SIM I built so hoping my instrument goes much quicker with the amount of training I can do on it at home. I'm glad you mentioned the SIM part with the school though. My current school doesn't have one but the school down the hall does. So it'll probably make sense to go there. Like following your journey. Haters will hate. At the end of the day only results matter. Thanks!!!!

​​​@@trent_dyrsmid WOW! This is crazy! I'm 54 and wanting to get back into aviation. I earned my private in Dec.1998. I then shuttled planes between the 3 fbo's for my flight school to build free hrs. I was also an EAA Young Eagle Flight Leader for a few years.(very satisfying) Got bored and decided to move from Wisconsin to Colorado and earned a degree in aircraft maintenance and an A&P. Worked for 12 yrs as a structural tech on business jets/turbo props. Which absolutely burned me out. That's when I left aviation all together. Now, at 54, I want back in! But am hesitant bc of my age. I do not want to go ATP, but would be content as a cfi or designated examiner. You've given me hope again. My biggest hurdle, besides funds, is that i lost all my logbooks during many moves. Right now, I'm considering approaching a major flight school and reaching an agreement to go through currency, instrument, commercial, cfi/cfii, me, mei, meii, then d.e., while also offering my A&P services in trade. I don't know if that's realistic… ..but I'm going to try! Thanks for this video! Might you have any suggestions?

@@ron1969 That is awesome! I'll be thinking about you on the 28th. Me… I actually received my ppl on 12-8-1998. Then was a ferry pilot for about a year, shuttling planes for my fbo. Got bored, broke. You know, life happened. Decided to move from Wisconsin to Denver and got an A&P, and a degree in aviation maintenance technology. Worked for 12 yrs as a structural tech on business jets/turboprops til 2010. Then got out of aviation all together. Lost all my logbooks since. (That hurts). Now, I'm thinking about trying to work out a deal with a major flight school to fast track thru meii while hopefully working part time for them (during training) as an A&P. End goal is to be a Designated Examiner. I have no idea if that plan is possible, but I'm tired of grinding in something I don't enjoy. I'd rather work my ass off again in aviation, to at least end my working days doing something I love and miss. I'd be interested in knowing how the SIM training works out. That wasn't an option in the late 90's for me.

Hi Trent, love the videos. I am in a very similar position that you were in back in May. I'm currently 53 and I'm looking to start my training in January next year. Like you I had done about 100 hours of flying trying to get my PPL in 1995. I was about ready to take my PPL check ride when I ran out of money. I had just completed my second long cross country and passed my PPL written with a 98. Long story short I ended up graduating with a degree in aviation management and went on to become a successful web developer and filmmaker for many years. I now have a wife and family and now I'm ready to try going back to flight school to finish what I started 30 years ago. Watching your videos have been super inspiring to me and I want to follow your blueprint. Like you I will have 100% focus with no distractions to get it done. Thank you for sharing your journey and keep up the great work.

Trent--It has been great watching your progress. I just did my 2nd cross country solo so I'm working it, just not as fast as you (I turned 53 in July). Also SPOT ON with the DPE comment. My son just got his Commercial certification (in 1 year) but he had to wait about 1 1/2 months for his private checkride. About 3 weeks for his instrument, and about another 2-3 weeks for his commercial checkride. It was a little frustrating but we understood. He also just turned 21 2 weeks ago so not in as big a rush as you, but still very important thing to ask about. Congratulations again and I'm right behind you.

Consider offering your local pilots a service to "exercise their plane" for them. Once or twice a month you fly their plane, and provide feedback to their maint pros, and them. That way they don't go out to take the fam to lunch and have a flat tire, dead battery, and an out of date reg card. Has worked well for others I know.

Thank you for sharing and encouraging me. In fact, my student pilot friend and I always take away positive notes from your videos.
