Simulator Training - Your Last Step Before Flying Jets!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 авг 2024
- (Filmed in coordination with American Airlines, Envoy Air, and FlightSafety outside of required airline flight training).... Regardless of which airline you'll fly for one day, the last step before flying jets for the first time is simulator training. These simulators are so accurate that you can literally feel bumps in the pavement while taxiing. Here's what you can expect from training in multi-million dollar sims!
This was my last step before flying the Embraer 145 during "initial operating experience" (IOE), which is the topic for the next video. All Part 121 training was conducted separately from any video production.

Thanks for watching,

Thanks for checking out the video guys! It's amazing how well this training prepared me to fly the actual airplane. There's plenty of videos coming up soon about flying the line and operations. If there's something specific you want to see or learn about, leave a comment below! And if you have specific questions, feel free to shoot me an email or Instagram message.
Awesome job man! Can't wait to see the future vids!
Absolutely loving these videos. My dream was to fly for a living but life handed me other plans unfortunately. This is giving me an insight on the life I'm sadly too old (at almost 34) to purse now that things are back on track.
Swayne Martin just got hired by Envoy! Starting ATP-CTP in either December or January. See you on the line someday
Matt_Waddy - 34, really you could have 20+ year career flying.
Awesome job Swayne.
Thank you American Airline for allowing Swayne to video the process to being a AA/Envoy pilot. Great job Swayne love your video. Can't wait for your actual flight in a 145.
like2fly I’m so glad I’m able to lift the curtain a little bit on how this stuff works - No airline has allowed filming quite like this!
Swayne Martin do you plan on “upgrading” airlines, and if so, what airline?
As a 50 year old who wished he could have done what you are doing back in the day (but money and then family ‘got in the way’), I’ll just live through you! Keep it up! And thanks for the great videos!!!!!
Thanks for following along!
I can relate! I'm 44 now and sure wish I made different decisions back then and finished what I started. But like you, I started a family and my priorities changed.
I would be interested to learn from you how deciding to marry hampered your goals? - i thought marriage and family are good??
@Joe Biden I'm working on it! Thanks!
Biden and Asiatech, let me start by admitting that I was probably not the most motivated to make flying a career; I was too scared to run out of money! I am now a 50 year old prison nurse making an easy 6-figures a year with pension (‘easy’ in that the prison setting is actually a LOT LESS stressful than the hospital setting believe me!!!). I started flying in the early 90s gaining experience on piper 160s. Within 4 years of me starting, the rental fees more than doubled!!!! Back then, I was just a customer service rep making 20k a year if that... so with rent etc, I decided to stop flying and go back to school for an accounting degree and spent of my life as an accountant. But after a couple of layoffs in the early 2000s, I went back to school again to become an RN because I figured they always need nurses plus there was a shortage. Marriage didn’t take money, 3 children did!!! Children ain’t cheap... I worked 5 years in the hospital, then moved on to prison where the money is great and easy with pension and benefits, BUT now I am 50 going on 51!!!!! Speaking for ME, it is TOO LATE. I gave chemo, and I realized that people 50 plus years old are more prone to get a cancer diagnosis or other chronic illness that takes money to treat etc; also due to my accounting experience, I know and believe that people 50+ years old should really concentrate on saving for retirement and paying off their mortgage, because if a sickness occurs, it can darn near bankrupt them!!! I’ve seen it!! So me personally, don’t believe a 50+ year old should be spending big money or borrowing money to start a new career, but focusing on financial security for the upcoming ‘twilight years’, etc. so for ME, pursuing a flying career is OVER... I have been trying to get my 13 year old daughter interested and have paid for a couple of ‘intro’ flights, but she has not inherited my flying bug so far. I am now financially ‘secure’ with no debt (except mortgage) or health issues at the moment so I may try to fly as a hobby soon, but I am not interested in spending big money or borrowing to pursue flying as a career at 50+ and would not recommend anyone do so... in my opinion only...
Well done, Swayne. Congratulations!

3:07 Our man is being followed into the simulator by what appears to be a very lifelike robot.
It's pretty admirable that you were able to do this video while going through the stresses of training. Well done!
Swayne, congratulations on getting through this phase. It's so cool that you can document this so everyone can see what goes on in the training of airline pilots. Good luck as you move forward!
Pete Mac thank you !
Congratulations Swayne ! I've been a part of your journey since the first video. You've worked hard to achieve your goals, and should be proud of your accomplishments. All the best from RSW
Thanks Bruce!
Congratulations on achieving the dream for so many of us. Looking forward to following your continued adventures.
I am so, so happy every time I watch one of your videos. There are so many people in my life right now telling me not to do this, not to follow my dreams because it's not what they want me to do or because it's "risky", and sometimes I find myself wondering if I'm choosing the right thing. Any time I watch a video you've made, though, I realize that it doesn't matter at all what they think because this is exactly what I want to do. Seriously thank you so much and I can't believe how far you've come in the time I've been watching your videos!!
Thanks Catherine! DONT listen to them. I had so many people from the very beginning tell me not to do this... And look what I would've missed out on!
Starting training in the ERJ-175 on Monday!! Can hardly wait.
Awesome!!
I'm really excited for you, Swayne! It is awesome to see how excited you are about this, and how far you have come.
Thank you Ryley!
I have huge respect for what you are doing. I am impressed by not only the training, but your ability to get the clearances to share this experience with us. I admire your ability to make things happen.
Thank you so much! I'm glad you noticed that. It takes months to get approvals in place most of the time... Happy to finally make it happen!
I flew those same EMB 145 sims in 2001 in order to qualify for my AA flow thru slot. I was supposed to flow in 2003 but 9/11 happened. I waited 12 years for my flow and yesterday, I just upgraded to 737 Captain.
Man, Swayne is a gem for aviation content, he goes above and beyond to provide us great content and show us his entire path from the very beginning all the way to a major airline.
That was awesome Swayne. Looking forward to follow along the journey.
Thanks Sam!
Awesome work man! I'm currently working towards my PPL and I'm absolutely loving it.
I've been following you since the very beginning of your pilot career. It's incredible to see how far you have come in a relatively short period of time. I envy your life. And for somebody I don't know I'm extremely proud of how motivated you are to become a commercial airline pilot. So young, and yet so accomplished. I wish I had made better decisions in my life to where I could have done the same.
Boosted Speed Demon Thanks for following along! It’s never to late to get started. I have friends who made the transition as late as 60 years old!
this is aviation gold, i know its hard to film this training with all the red tape involved but its a great behind the scenes view for future candidates
Thank you Nick! There is generally a lot of red tape and I worked hard to get everything approved for you guys. Glad you noticed
I start Envoy Air training as a FO on January 14th. I'm super excited. Thanks for the videos!
Jonathan Boes congrats man! See ya soon
Thanks to your teammates and AA for allowing you to share with us!
ILM787 Thanks for watching! I’m sure AA would love to receive some feedback if you email their recruitment department and let them know what you think.
Swayne Martin Wilco. Thanks to Envoy too...the AA branding worked!
14 years ago I had the privilege of flying level D full motion sims of the A320 & 747-400 at the United Airlines Training Center here in Colorado and not a day has gone by since that I haven’t wished I could go back. I’m not a lunatic... I know they were sims... but somewhere in the darkest recesses of my feeble old mind I still believe that I actually flew those planes even after all these years. ;)
It's really cool how you're showing literally the steps on how you become an airline pilot. I've seen no other channel doing this, and it's really cool! I plan on becoming a pilot for Delta Airlines and I feel I am accomplishing that well. I just recently became a freshman in highschool and I have good grades and I'm getting involved in sports. I already have a few colleges in mind that I want to go to. Thanks for letting us know how the steps are done!
I'm glad I'm able to show you guys! This is the first time anyone has done it from a 1st person point of view... And I couldn't be happier to see it's helping people out
Swayne, as a pilot myself in college and training to eventually reach airline pilot dream I really appreciate you sharing your experiences.
my son is going to start ATP school
in may 2019 he likes your videos and i enjoy them too thanks for making the video! congratulations ,Darryl
Darryl or Julie Rugh that’s great!
Thank you for these Envoy Training videos, you have inspired me to become a pilot.
No problem! I'm glad you've been enjoying them.
Congratulations! I’m an Envoy agent at COU. Currently we only have a single ERJ-145 departure out of 5 departures daily, but I hope to meet you someday! Keep up the great videos
You have come such a long way on your journey and kept us informed and educated along the way. Best of luck in progressing to the Envoy FO seat. Can’t wait to see a video from the right seat of a long haul AA jumbo in the future.
Ed Pippin Thanks Ed!
Can’t wait till your first flight!!!✈️
Great stuff here Swayne, and hopefully some of the younger people see this and decide to become a pilot one day just like you.
Thanks Bob!
Wow from a Caravan to an ERJ145! I am still amazed how fast you did all this. Keep up the good work. Pleasant flights and soft landings. I too wanted to be in aviation. Things in my life forced a different path. I would have maintained military and civilian aircraft. So I enjoy what you do instead. Love the videos.
Thank you! I'm glad you're following along
Congrats man... Proud of you... See you in the skies
I'm 48 but I'm going to try and get where you are. You are an inspiration to us all. Thank your employer for me
Sooo cool that you are able to continue this at Envoy!!!
William Evans It’s been great. So happy we are making the appropriate approvals happen. It’s hard work, but this is important stuff to show people
So cool Swayne. I’m impressed. Ur patents must b extremely proud.
Swayne, my end goal has always and will be Envoy then straight to American. Keep pumping out these videos.
Also: how did you like UND? That's definitely a choice on my list.
Pierce Townsend loved UND!
Can you please talk about the benefits in airlines such as free traveling, family/buddy passes, hotel, and other expenses in your upcoming videos? Your videos help me understand the process of being a pilot from A to Z. Thank you so much for sharing your experience!!!!! Good luck with your upcoming flights! Be safe!
Ronak Joshi planning to do that!
Employees, spouses, children, and parents get unlimited standby travel. Additionally, immediate family members of the employee get 10 higher priority standby passes. You get 16 'buddy passes' to use for friends, but they are the lowest on the priority list. Both of these will reset every year. When you are actually flying a trip, all your hotels are paid for. Every month, you get 4 extra commuter hotel nights to use when you need them.
Very Nice, Swayne Martin! Well, im going to be a pilot too and i see that you will be a very good professional.
Im from Brazil, the home of Embraer, so im very happy that the embraer will be a part of your life to start too! Well, ill see all your new videos, you can count on me.
The Embraer factory is less than 50 km from my home.
Thank you!
Man, I'm so happy for you. U made it! Flying jets is my ultimate goal :)
Congrats, Mr. Martin. I've really enjoyed following your journey. I'm excited about the next video.
Thanks Glenn!
The pinnacle of why we train to fly. Superb
Thank you!
You work so hard. You deserve to succeed. Best of luck when you start flying the aircraft! Looking forward to the next videos 👍
Thank you Kevin!
Fantastic Swayne. Always aim to enjoy sim. 8 hrs a year now until you retire! Incidentally my Kona trip went well. RTW eastbound in 4 sectors, 36.5 hrs!
Speed Brake Miss Kona!
Hi Swayne,
i‘m from Germany,so I hope you can understand my English! I love every single video, that you produced. It motivates me every time watching your videos. Hopefully I pass my school in the next two years and after this, I want to go to Lufthansa but if I‘m gonna fail the assessment center, I want to go to America and try to get a Pilot there. I wish you always happy Landings.
Greetings from Germany
~Julian
Thanks Julian!
Congrats Swayne! Looking forward to your first flight in the real aircraft.

Man I was wondering how far you were. Flew the regionals 4 times this month and was looking for you each time! One of these days!
Soon!
Just booked my first lessons out of Long Beach airport! Extremely far from where you are now but hope to be up in the skies with you in a few years!
You'll love it! Keep working hard
I got a chance to tour that training center when I was down there yesterday. Saw those same sims! Super cool!
Amazing, keep up the great work.
Awesome video Swayne..Thanx for sharing.. You and Stevo have inspired me to get back into flying... Since Jan 2018 I'm making a smooth transition from Oil Field Work to going Commercial Pilot ASAP... Good luck to you Swane..!!! We looking forward to seeing your great progress...

Great video, thanks for sharing your experience!
I love your videos! I've always wanted to fly and I was Comm/Nav in the Air Force, so I fixed radios and nav equipment. At 35 I've decided to just do it already and I'm prepping for flight school now!
Love your videos, going to a flying college soon and I want to follow your path. :) So inspirational!
Thank you!
Way to go Swayne!
Congrats man! That is a rough time slot to train in haha. Keep up the great content!
Thank you! It was easier than I thought. You definitely can't keep track of time inside the sim
Well done Swayne!!! Congratulations! Have enjoyed and learned a lot from your very professional videos! Keep up the great work! I got my medical and am getting current on my FI and FII. I havnt flown since 2002 but am on my way to getting my first job flying!
Keep working hard!
