So it was four days right? Day one was a commute on WN and a hotel stay on your dime? How many days off before the next trip? Was this trip over a weekend or did you have to commute on a weekend? How long was your rest at each hotel? Cool vids, man.

Could you land the 737 if need be?
@FlyByGarrett4 күн бұрын
Could definitely bring that plane down to 30 feet without a problem on runway, but since it's a different weight, view, and control feel, I would most likely damage the airframe upon the actual touch down (I'm imagining it would be a hard landing) at least that's how I'd imagine it would go.

Love this video. Those po boys in Shreveport look mighty tasty. My only question is how long is a typical Duty day at a regional? Just trying to compare that to a normal work schedule.
@FlyByGarrett6 күн бұрын
I'm looking at my schedule now for next month, it varies per day, bit you're looking at around 8 hours average. I do have a couple of days where I only have a 3 hour duty day and then I'm done. But the maximum is 14 hours, and it can be extended by 2 hours (the pilot can say no to this without penalty).

hey brother, what was your personal path to becoming a commercial pilot? i haven't started yet, and i'd be starting late.. but it's kind of my next big goal.
@FlyByGarrett11 күн бұрын
Hey! It was a very weird path for me. I started training when I graduated HS. But could only fly about 1 to 2 times a week. Took me a year to get my PPL, another year and a half for Instruement. Then I went to College for Aerospace engineering, midway thru that realized I hated it. Still finished tho. Spent my last two semester at college and getting my Commerical plus flying skydivers. Got selected at L3Harris in FL for their Instructor sponsored training. Got that done, Covid happened, Got let go. Found a place that managed people's Cirrus Planes and Meridians (that's where my KZfaq channel starts) and then got hired at the regionals when I got the hours. Overall a ver long 10 years which could have been done in 3 or 4 years.
