Love your video about becoming a Commercial Pilot while attempting to earn a living wage! As you so eloquently stated, there are no shortcuts at least in the US where I live. It is very expensive to obtain all the certifications you need for your ATPC and the 1500 flight hours required by most airlines ! For the few that make the grade their are hundreds of aspiring pilots who drop out or abandon their dream! You put becoming a Commercial Pilot in perspective for anyone who aspires to become one! You got my attention and subscribed to your channel!

Thanks for the informative video. Heading to Sault College in Ontario in 2019 for aviation Technology where flight costs are subsidized and tuition is free because of being in a low income family. Last year of high school now in Ottawa with nearly 100 in all math courses. Really dedicated and motivated to work for an airline like air Canada or west jet. Multi engine rating is part of the program so hopefully my first job is tolerable. Keep up the great videos!

As a pilot here in the U.S.A, I can attest to just about everything he said. I became a CFI because no one wanted me as a low time pilot, then joined Civil Air Patrol hoping to get hours (boy was I wrong about that - nothing but a good old boys club). Then working in Alaska, then a regional pilot, then getting frustrated and getting non pilot jobs to make a living. Finally trying my hand as a Caravan Pilot, then doing part 135 (charter) flying, then the pandemic hits and back to non pilot jobs again. You really need a second career to afford to be a pilot.

Only you can determine if it’s “worth it”, my goal is to provide all the information out there that wasn’t available when I was starting out. If you live in the US, the pilot career is a very good path right now, as they pay has finally been adjusted to account for the pilot shortage. Elsewhere in the world, being a pilot is not as lucrative as some think, and you really have to do it for the passion. Otherwise there are way better paying careers out there with much less stress and responsibility. Going into the tech sector is much higher paying: software engineer, data analyst etc.

With a bachelor of science in Mechanical Engineering and an Airline Transport Pilot Certificate with a total of 2000 flying hours which were mostly gained through flight instruction, back in 1995 I was offered to fly right seat on a twin turboprop (Embraer EMB 110) with United Express for $15,750/year! Between my 4 year degree in engineering and all my pilot certificates I had spent close to $100K and then to be offered a job for $15,750, it was a slap in the face. That is what I call "Pathetic"; I could have made more money flipping burgers. That is when I turned my back on aviation and got a job as an engineer with a starting salary of $60K which was increased to $100,000 in just a matter of 5 years. It has been 23 years since I made the decision getting out of aviation and I keep thinking what a wise choice did I make back then since I still have friends in Aviation who are playing the yoyo game with their salary as it had been described in this video.

I applaud you good sir! Not everyone has the foresight to make such a big decision, but unfortunately for many, their eyes get opened way too late. That was my biggest inspiration for making this video, to inform future pilots as early as possible. If you go in with your eyes wide open, you can prepare for what’s ahead. Personally my retirement goal is between 45-50yrs old, as I don’t plan on sitting in a metal tube until 65! Thanks for sharing your story!

I would say this is a fair and acurrate assessment of pilot life in Canada. Ultimately you need to decide if chasing the dream is really worth it. Student debt and poverty wages is no joke. Be prepared to sacrifice relationships and family time as well. It's apparent that the old industry isn't working since there is such a huge lack of qualified pilots available.

It’s not meant as a discouragement, but to educate about the challenges. Many pilots come into the industry with their eyes closed because there is very little information out there and a lot of myths. If you know the time it takes for each step, you can mentally prepare yourself for the low paying years, or make other strategic choices earlier in your career to maximize your pay. There are many directions in aviation, and you can’t trial and error all of them, because you would waste many years. Are you thinking about aviation Tony?

I tend not to compare specific schools against each other for liability reasons, but to answer your question, post secondary has no affect on helping you find your first job. The only airline in Canada that has post secondary as a hiring requirement is air Canada, and they use it at their discretion (meaning pilots have been hired there without any post secondary). You can also check out my modular vs integrated training video, maybe there is information in there you will find helpful👍🏻

@AviatorInspirations 4 жыл бұрын
Cadet flying is great if you can get in and qualify for some flight training. It will save you money while you build some flying skills before starting on your PPL (unless you can go all the way through the cadets to get your PPL). Almost every single pilot has to get a loan for flying, there is no other way unless your parents have an education fund setup for you. You can work and fly to minimize your debt, so it all depends now you manage your finances.

Opportunities Are Expected Soon And The Govt Is Also Supportive Of The Airlines During Times Like this Pandemic As Compared To Canada Where Govt Show zero Support And Airlines Let Go Off Their Employees So Easily. Command Upgrade Is Faster Pay Is Better And Roster Are Good In India If We Compare It To Any Regional Of LLC In Canada. I Know People From Indian Origin Born In Canada But They Are Flying For Major Indian Airlines. Canada's Aviation Sector Is Just A Glamour Looking Thing And Air Canada Seems To Be Pretty Attractive Too But Acc To Me India Could Turn Out Be Way Better Option. But Still We Can Do Our Trainings In Canada, Work As A Low Time Pilot In Canada And Earn Some Flight Time And Then Apply For The Airlines Which They Highly Value.

Here in New Zealand you can complete what’s called a diploma in general aviation. You get your ppl, cpl, multicrew, airline prep and flight instruction for $83,000USD it takes around 2 years and after that you are able to fly with the airlines. You get put at the top of the recruitment list for Air New Zealand (one of the worlds best ;) total hours amounting to 267 hours flight time.

Yes, we have those in Canada as well, and they are a popular option if you have the finances to pay up front and want to get it done in the fastest amount of time. Does Air New Zealand have a contract with that particular flight school? I would look into that, because flight schools do a lot of fancy marketing to get people in the door, then they tell you it’s a “chance” they will hire you or if your #1 in your class you get an interview.
@santiagokiwi3187 5 жыл бұрын
+Aviator Inspirations the government will give you an interest free loan for the course. There are a few flight schools in NZ that are under Air New Zealand’s “Preffered Training Academies” they take preference on hiring from those flight schools as opposed to others. The flight school I attend openly state that there is no promise of employment. Only that they are a preffered training establishment for Air NZ meaning they hire from the preffered schools before looking into pilots from other flight schools.

You have to really love flying to put yourself and family (if you have one) through this gauntlet. Sure you may end up with a good income if you make it to ATP Captain, but the cost extracted along the way in ever changing income levels, minimal family life may be more than most would be willing to pay. I think this may be the deciding factor for a lot of wannabe pilots who really don't look much past the flying part at the onset. We all love to fly, but not all of us would want to subject ourselves and family to the uncertainties of the lifestyle.

Air ambulance is a great gig, with the fastest ROI. 4th year Captain makes close to $100k. Corporate is a fantastic low workload job, but to get to captain will take a very long time since nobody leaves and if they company doesn’t buy new planes. Lastly career flight instructor is not a bad way to go. If you can get all the way up to a class1 flight instructor, you will be in high demand. Let me know your specifics and maybe I can give you more details about your area.

Keep searching for dispatch/ramp/206 positions just to get your foot in the door.

Hi Aviator Inspirations. Just recently stumbled upon your aviation videos and I’ve become obsessed with them. They are really helpful for me because I’m planning on starting flight school next year with the end goal of getting my commercial pilot license. I just graduated with a 4 year bachelors in November and I’m planning on saving up with work for a bit before I start and I’ll also be getting some funds from my mum. I’m planning on doing flight school part time while working and eventually getting another job to increase my flight hours after I finish. Any advice on the kinds of jobs I can start with after I’m done to build up hours ?
@AviatorInspirations 5 жыл бұрын
Hi Rinji! I have a video on finding your first pilot job, and until you get your CPL you cannot legally earn money as a pilot. With a PPL, you can build hours by renting, but to save on fuel costs you can get take friends flying and get them to chip in for fuel, that will save you a little money. Otherwise, you have to wait until you are fully licensed to build hours. The best thing you can start doing once you start training, is build your aviation network by connecting with other students and pilots. That will help you find jobs or get info about companies from those ahead of you. Good luck in your training!

wow, here in Mexico you obtain ppl + cpl + IFR in just 180 hours, then you can apply for any airline, if you are selected they bring you a "starter course" about 3 months, if you aprove you get right seat in an airbus a320, the first two year they discount you the cost of the starter course, you earn just like 12000USD year, but after five years you are making 70000k, now I see that we are so lucky, our pathway flight school / airline its a lot easier and faster

It sounds like you guys also have cadet programs like Europe. In North America nothing like that exists, but we have general aviation, while Europe doesn’t have that. In Canada you can rent a 172 and fly across the whole country if you wanted to. It’s a different advantage/disadvantage depending on how you want to look at it. Thanks for sharing!

The days of cadet programs are over in Europe, however, there is a lot of GA. You can rent a 172 and fly across your country or even the whole continent just as easily as in North America if you want to and have the money, although it's true there isn't an airfield or airport in every small town like in the US.

It’s very different here in the UK. You can start a course such as the easyJet MPL Cadet programme with little to no experience. If you pass selection, you go through the 18 months training and afterwards you will have a position as first officer with easyJet. The starting salary is something around £45,000 for an FO. I guess we are quite lucky? (Disclaimer: I am not yet an easyJet pilot, this is from research)

Air canada pilots start 60-70k first officer up to 130k. And captains earn 120k-250k maybe even up to 350k. Also flying experience in Canada is very attractive to Chinese airlines which can offer you 500k+. So I wouldn’t say its a bad idea flying in canada

A Canadian pilot can only work in Canada, or operate Canadian registered aircraft abroad. Other than that, you will need to do a license conversion for the country you want to fly in. The conversion, varies, so look into the process of the country you want to fly in, but it’s usually writing their exams and passing a flight test.

Otherwise go on a working holiday visa and pray pray pray to get your year of flying in during that time

Hi Drew! A career change is not out of the question at your age, but your expectations have to be realistic. The pilot shortage (I have a video on it) has accelerated the industry, and now pilots with 1200hrs can be flying a Q400 as first officer. However, the airline game is a long one and seniority is important, so it might be better for you to find an air ambulance or corporate job. They pay higher, and you don’t spend a lot of time away from your family (my latest video). The downside is you don’t get those travel benefits that attract you. Hope this helps you get started, and check out my other videos about the career👍🏻 Oh and I have other content on my Instagram if you want to follow there for more behind the scenes look

@AviatorInspirations 6 жыл бұрын
Thank you for the great feedback! To answer your question: yes, but not significantly. For the first pilot job it won’t help, as you don’t have any flying time, and it’s all an insurance requirement for the companies. Just show your work ethic and motivation during interviews. Later for the airlines tho, it does help a bit. Some airlines still want post secondary and its box you click on your online application. But lately with the pilot shortage the airlines have been reducing that requirement. So in general, it won’t give you a Significant advantage, but could help in the long run. Personally I only have a diploma, and I haven’t been slowed by it in my career. If you ever need private 1 on 1 coaching I offer that for a small fee on Magnifi: kp34c.app.goo.gl/kY4aYhPaFD8jBWwYA.

There were plenty of ups and downs but if you push yourself enough, you will make it. I forgot to mention that it is expected that you will have to move around the country for some work. My experience so far has seen me move across Canada twice already for jobs and to some remote areas of the country.

Hi , first of all thanks for making this videos. They really help my thinking and planning. I have few things to ask you. After completing my CPL with IFR single engine aircraft and my instructor rating i am just building single engine flying hours. so after making 500 - 1000 hours on single engine with IFR i can end up in cessana grand caravan as a first officer ? During this time i am just building my single engine hours experience. So i cannot go for multi engine jobs right ? this is where my confusion rises. I know few guys who were initially flying cessna caravan in hawaii for a small airlines..and after some time bulding they moved in to some multi engine aircraft regional so they say. But is it possible ? can a single engine IFR rated 1000 hours pilot can get work in mlti engine turboprops ? I am just starting my PPL next year.
@AviatorInspirations 5 жыл бұрын
Hi, glad you’re finding my channel helpful! First, after your CPL you need to get your Multi-Engine IFR, not single engine IFR! Instructor rating is fine, but if you can get a 206 or caravan job right away that’s better. Remember, although you are an instructor you won’t be teaching multi anytime soon or IFR until you get much more experience (unless the schools have a super high instructor turnover then anything is possible). Second, unless your 2nd job is on a Navajo or king air, you most likely won’t have multi time, but the regionals are starting to hire with fewer and fewer requirements, so find the hiring requirements for the regionals you want to apply for in the future and see if they are adamant about needing multi time. Also, if you are just starting on your PPL you are 3-4yrs away from worrying about this, and things can change dramatically, just be prepared for that. The pilot shortage is in full gear, and I don’t think it’ll slow down in the next 5yrs, but anything is possible (another recession, companies going bankrupt etc). Look what’s happening in Europe, ULCC’s are closing almost every few months and that’s a couple hundred pilots that just flood the market.
@pipgator4271 5 жыл бұрын
Thank you so much for this quick reply. Actually i am working on my mindset, so that i dont over dream. So your guidance is i should do PPL > CPL > MULTI + IFR > Instructor rating = And then try to find either caravans or 206 jobs OR find Navajo or King air for multi time building right ? If so i will follow this your tip. I want to work for regional A320's at some point of my life. Even if i am at my 50's. Thank you again, if i have other questions how do i reach you besides KZfaq ?

I would look for entry level jobs as soon as you’re done the CPL - Multi-IFR and then start working on your instructor rating not to waste time.

Hey Ryan! I’ve actually lived in cold lake and was a flight instructor at the regional airport, and met many Air Force hopefuls, so here are my insights. Only join the air force if you would be happy serving IF you didn’t make it through selection. I’m sure you have thought about it already, but think hard about it because many people fail selection, but you still have to serve out your years if you want to get out later. Next, if you do become a pilot, remember that Air Force Pilots fly very little, in your whole career you might only build 2000hrs!!! That’s an important point to remember, since airlines will not hire you with time, and you might have to start at the regionals. It used to be that airlines hired many military pilots, air canada especially, but they want over 2000hrs (typically 5000hrs but with the pilot shortage it’s less). So do it if you want to be in the military, don’t do it for the free pilot training. I am not discouraging you, but simply providing the facts, because I was also considering it at 18yrs old, and I’m happy I didn’t pursue it. Hope this gives you some insights!

I am very greatful that I have discovered your channel and saddened by the fact that I haven't found it earlier. As I found your video very inspiring I would like to ask this topic which is especially bothering me. I am born in 2002 and I am currently in the second year of high school (1 more year in order to go to a college or a flight school). I do not come from a rich family, infact we are starting a have economic struggles. I shall add that I live in Greece which makes the concept of choosing a flight school really hard. My question that I would really like to ask is : Is it possible for me to live out the pilot career via taking a huge loan without the risk of losing property? Also, do I need to have good grades in order to become a pilot? As well as the need to choose a specific field that focuses entirely on maths and those types of lessons? Except from that, my goal is to become an airline pilot, what is the average expense for this process. Thank you so much for your dedication! :)

Hi Chris! I am not as familiar with financial options in Europe, and I know Greece is still struggling financially, so personally I would go talk to the banks and what their lending policies are, or if there are any student loans or scholarships available. To be a pilot you don’t have to have specific grades or take special subjects, but in Europe it’s high competition for flight colleges so I’m sure it will help if you excel at your studies. Look into the requirement of flight schools in Europe, and they will have different costs. I have several videos on my channel about costs, but they are aimed at Canada and North America. Sorry I don’t have more specifics to answer your questions.

Those figures are more or less correct within Canada still, but a lot of the movements within the industry has really sped up this past 2 years. Without any internal references, I moved from instructing on a light twin-engine aircraft at a flight school with about 1100 hrs TT to a regional airline flying the CRJ-200 as an FO earlier last year earning about $35,000 a year. I then moved onto another airline this year flying the B757 and B767 as an FO earning about $75,000 a year and just cracked my 2000 hrs TT on a 767. My point is, internal references surely wouldn’t hurt but with the way the industry is moving nowadays, it’s really more about your luck and timing, and also how willing you are to move to another city for the job.

@AviatorInspirations 5 жыл бұрын
Neither way is better, they just accomplish different things, so you have to decide what’s more important to you. Through a college you get a diploma or degree, but it costs more money, and the time crunch is stressful. The positives is what you get a diploma and build a network of pilot friends who in the future can help each other get your foot in the door. Flight school you don’t get post secondary, but it’s cheaper, very flexible and less stress, and you can’t fail the program, you just train until you are ready for your flight test. With the college they push you, but with a flight school you push yourself and can do it just as fast, or slower if your not as motivated or have financing setup. The course you linked tho I’m not sure what diploma you get as I’m not familiar with bible studies. I doubt it will be a recognized diploma, so look into that first. Hope this helps.

When I was quite young 20+ years ago I looked up to pilots the same way I looked at doctors, lawyers, dentists etc. I thought it was a high paying coveted job. As a PPL student that owns his own plane, I am definitely not going for my commercial for the current wages in Canada. As much as I would like to fly for a living, my family just cannot afford the low salary. There is zero incentive for someone in their 30s with a solid career to seek out a job as a pilot. A love for flying doesn’t put food on a table and pay the bills especially after our high taxes and increasing cost of living.

Hi! Thank you so much i learned alot alot :) I want to ask one thing. Next year i want to study pilot but i don't have university degree. Is that ok to study pilot job in only academi? (I asked alot's of youtubers, my friend's friend but i don't know what is right) Thanx :)

No degree is required to start pilot training. Most airlines don’t require them to get a job either. A few airlines want a diploma or degree, but they are relaxing those requirements with the pilot shortage. So don’t let that stop you from starting training👍🏻

Large flight school such as these have their own challenges, where they are fast paced, if you fall behind you will not be able to catch up, and some student have really bad experiences with them. If you are not a fast learner, I would look at other options out there

Hey, I'm finishing my high school in 2020 and I'm thinking of moving to NB for my flight training. However, I'm wondering whether Canadian schools/airlines hire international graduates. I'm sure they do, don't they? And how's the aviation market right now in Ca?
@AviatorInspirations 4 жыл бұрын
The whole aviation industry, all around the world, is in a huge pilot shortage right now! I’m sure if you do some research online you will find the statistics on that. To work in Canada, you need a visa or permanent residency, then yes you can get a job👍🏻

@@AviatorInspirations I haven't researched about the pilot shortage in Canada yet but I've checked the requirements of a few airlines(Mostly King Air and Caravan) and it seems like most of them are only accepting PR or Canadian citizen, and that's why I'm somehow worried

You can only work in Canada as as pilot if you have PR or citizenship. Nobody can work in any profession legally without that.

Everyone is welcome to become an international student, but working as a pilot is whole different topic. You need to get a company to sponsor your work visa. A few flight schools might sponsor you, but bigger companies will not. You have to decide what country you will spend your pilot career in.

Why Do You Wanna Fly In Canada When Your Country(India) Aviation Sector Is Doing Way Better Than Canada, More Security In India When It's A Pandemic As Airlines Don't Let Go Pilots In India As They Do In Canada And When The Canadian Pilots Are Eagerly Wanting To Leaving Canada And Fly Overseas, You're Moving To Canada That Is Strange...

My question is do you have to become a flight instructor or a ramp agent to earn money for flying or can I work somewhere else to gain money to fly
@AviatorInspirations 5 жыл бұрын
While in flight school you can work any job you want. You become a flight instructor only after getting all your pilot licenses for your first flying job, or get a flying job at a small company on a 206, Navajo, or caravan.

Hello! Do you have any information about Singapore or the market near its region? Thank you. I'm thinking about going through flight school and finding a job locally in Singapore. What do you think?
@AviatorInspirations 6 жыл бұрын
I am not familiar with Singapore, so unfortunately I can’t help you with details. What country are you from? I would first look into safety ratings of the airlines and the region. A lot of those Asian countries have poor safety ratings, low training standards, and therefore you are risking your safety. I’m not saying that’s the case for Singapore, but I would do my research before making a decision. Good luck!

Hey dear, If you want to become pilot in Canada one should have ppl cpl and atpl license to get a job in any Canadian airlines as FO in your case any flying school will not allow you or start training with cpl there is a procedure so first ppl then cpl and after that atpl so it would be good if she complet her training fully in Philippines and then convert entire licence to Canada or if you want to train in Canada then you have to pay the whole cost including ppl Hope this helps

Pilots in North America seem to have a much difficult time making money "early on". With a bachelor of business administration, I got selected by my company. I did not pay for any of the training which took about 2 and a half years. Started out as 747 First Officer, earning about 90-100k/year. It's not much though but I live in Taiwan 90-100k a year you can have a pretty comfortable time. China is also hiring lots of pilots and you can earn about 200-250k a year as a captain.

I didn't have such luck/talent in Taiwan, so I'm sticking it out in North America until I get some Jet time before I go home and try again. It's not as bad as he makes it right now. At least not in the US. 35K to 45K is about normal for flight instructors, and if you try hard enough, 1.5-2 years till you make regionals. Then you're looking at about 50-70K a year for the first two years. BUT...!! You make Capt. in about 18-24 months.

This career seems to be a gamble, depending entirely on your country. I know teen's flying regional multi engine turbo prop on starting salary of $95,000+ .... without a cadetship, family contacts or a bachelor/degree in aviation. Smart people, with a sense for business, will always find a quicker way. Every pilot i know understands the importance of entrepreneuring and networking. Who you befriend in flight school, what parties you go to and how you present yourself can be the difference between 10 years fucking around on advice of becoming an instructor, or lining up an interview with below a regional airliners official first/second officers job requirements.
@AviatorInspirations 5 жыл бұрын
I would disagree that every pilot understands entrepreneurship, that’s part of the problem in our industry. Everyone is so happy to fly airplanes, they forget the business aspects and how airlines make money, and how pilots make money and those two don’t line up. I’ll be making a future video about pilots and business, but I agree with you that it’s a gamble. Most of it is luck, part contacts, the rest is hustle.

You can apply under the requirement but will just end up in the job pool until your licence unlocks. Some regionals in Canada are accepting applications at 500hrs but that’s not to get hired, just to enter the pool and update your hours periodically till your logbook matures.
