If these companies don't stop their backwoods ass thinking They're going to be in worse shape than they are now. Being a pilot is like being a truck driver or plumber or electrician it's just a blue collar trade. As a matter of fact you go to trade school like ATP And get all your license Endorsements and flight time and start applying for a job. Just because you have a college degree doesn't make you a better pilot. It makes you an Overqualified idiot. It looks stupid to get a degree to become a pilot because it's a blue collar job . It's like going to become a truck driver or electrician and getting a college degree. It makes no sense it's Stupid
Airlines: "We've got a massive shortage of pilots, to the extent that we're having to regularly delay flights." Also Airlines: "Your flying credentials look excellent, but we'd REALLY prefer it if you were $80k in debt with a BA in medieval French literature. In order to get pilots with the highest responsibility and good judgement, we only hire whose who are washed-up in a failed career, and preferably took out a pile of additional loans to make a second blind yolo into aviation. Someone like you who worked hard right out of high school and paid their way through flight training in cash from their savings... how can we know that you have a strong work ethic?" Gonna be honest, I'm really not interested in working for a company that still operates based on logic like that. It's a sure sign that they're going to be a bureaucratic old-boys-club. I have no respect for anyone that wants me to waste part of my life just to tick a box on their paperwork. If they're really interested in "proving that you accomplished something hard," then they'd forget about the degree and start looking for Alaskan crab fishermen.
@@douknowwhodeezis3283 The good thing about an Aviation degree is that you’re ground school from flight training can be used as credit towards the bachelors degree. That will cut the amount of time needed considerably. The airlines don’t care what your major is.
This is exactly why never became a airline pilot. Because I have no desire to go $80000 in debt for a degree that I will never use in a job that has no use for the degree that I got. I think it should be against the law to require college degree if it has nothing to do with the job
I was just wondering about this and could not find it and as soon as I was about to search about this on youtube I saw that this is in my recomened thanks
Please tell these kids they do need a degree in Aeronautical Science…..they’re wasting money, the airlines don’t care if you have a degree Earth Science. Put it simple, have a degree or trade to fall back on whenever the industry goes through that cycle. 🤨
I want to go to a modern airplane-school that takes 2 years instead of a 4 year bachelor's course... But I'm afraid I won't be able to fly for a major airline later in life after choosing the 2 year one instead of the 4 year Bachelor one...
Go to a community college and get an associates degree. Then pursue flight training. After you’re employed continue with a degree in Aviation online. The reason to major in Aviation is because the flight training can be applied as credit toward the degree. You’ll have your bachelors by the time you get to the majors.
I have a masters in history, with 105k from that. Should I use financial aid for aviation degree that gets my licenses or just a flight school? I am confused.
Im getting a degree in avaiton only because I can get both done at the same time with one loan instead of two. I can also have access to a lot more scholarships, FASFA, and student loans then I can going through a strictly flight school. It just makes it more affordable I feel. I plan on doing my stuff at Liberty Uni online an I can get my degree and licenses for around d 120k (I already have a AS degree so I got credits to transfer) for both and I get an R-ATP licenses and access to special programs with airlines such as Envoy and Skywest. It costs around 80k to get all your licenses and then adding a degree can add another 50k+ or so depending on Financial aid an where you go. But in general it dose not matter where you got for your degree I feel. Its just checking off the fact you have a degree.
Don't work for the airlines! It's not like it used to be, if you can get a degree in aviation you can get a degree in engineering. Do something reputable! ! Airline management looks at pilots as bus drivers and treats them as such. It's only been getting worse every year. Coming from a 30 year airline pilot!
After 10 years the average Airline pilot is making just under $300k per year.... and you're saying don't do it because you're treated like a bus driver? What bus driver do you know of that is making a quarter million per year?
It's a blue collar job. It basically makes you a tradesman because you went to trade school To get your Pilot license. It's the same thing as becoming a truck driver or electrician or plumber or welder. As a matter of fact you can become a full certified airline pilot just a couple of months. It takes years to become electrician. I'll laugh my ass off at the idea of a college degree for a blue collar job
Liberty university accepts 1.5 gps and no scores on act and sat I'm applying to go and I asked the same question to them today. I had a 2.4 GPA in hs last year mainly cuz of covid.
This is Prashant Ranjitkar from Nepal and I had some queries and confusion. I am interested in aviation and piloting and I was wondering whether an international student can get a job as a pilot in the USA after doing a bachelor's in aviation? If a non-US citizen or non-green cardholder can work or will airlines hire foreigners and help to provide or sponsor with a working/permit visa? What are the aspects for an international student in terms of career and what are the job opportunities?
Hey man, you could join a college while getting your commercial licenses. Which allows you to work for 3 years after you graduate from your college. You can work on OPT.
Hello, I have a quick question. So I recently got accepted into Bachelor of science in Aviation technology but am concerned that I may have chosen the wrong major because I heard Aviation management major would learn to fly the plane than the Aviation technology. Is it true that those students who got their degree from Aviation technology won't become a pilot? Being an airline pilot myself is my all time dream goal. I always wanted to be in the major airline pilot but scared that I may have chosen the wrong degree.
Your flight training is what matters. Getting your degree just allows you to check one more box on a resume. Either degree is fine if you want to be an airline pilot.
Programs where you get you licenses will usually be called "Professional Pilot Program" or something along that lines. ER calls their program "Aeronautical Science Fixed or Rotor wing Program" Liberty University calls it Professional Pilot Just look into the classes. They will usually say Private training, IFR training eta. If you don't see those its prob not a program that will allow you to get your licenses at the school. You can always switch degrees too if need be.

Delta just dropped their 4 year degree requirement. Now it's preferred but not required.
I think more airlines will be doing that more because of the shortage

Thank you for the information :)I want to work for delta some time in the future.
Delta is awesome! I would love to work for them as well

Thanks bro, u have no idea how much u just helped me. I was thinking of getting a degree in aviation cause I thought that was a requirement

Couldn’t agree more with this.

@@robd1859 Fortunately it seems airlines are starting to walk back on that requirement.
Would having a military background help?

Im a AnP mechanic hopefully they consider it

The reggae in the background is dope.

Does it matter what bachelor degree you get ?
What about 4 years of military experience (not as a pilot)
Great informative video🙌
Glad you think so!

Does a degree in aviation from a place like UND or Embry-Riddle set you that much apart/give you the leg up? Be honest
When hiring slows down a degree will set you apart from other candidates, but airlines give no preference to aviation degrees over other degrees.

I want to be a pilot but Don't have sufficient money . What to do?
Loans
bonnie and clyde time
I don't have money either. I'm going to university and paying loans there. And am also going to be covered by fasfa doing it

So whiney, I can’t believe how whiney pilots are, where else you gonna make 300?
It's a blue collar job.
It basically makes you a tradesman because you went to trade school To get your Pilot license. It's the same thing as becoming a truck driver or electrician or plumber or welder.

In my year 9 and year 10 I got A. But in 11 and 12 I got bad grades D. So would it effect me getting a job as a pilot because I got D grades.
d in english; affect not effect

American Airlines doesn’t mention anything about a degree
What in the world happened to a two year degree Geeeeeez
We should not be lowering standards, you should have a degree to fly professionally.
