      Hah ha, it’ll happen soon. I know the feeling. 💸 Some people think Bernoulli‘s principle is what makes airplanes fly but pilots really know it’s just cash money!

      I don’t really want to cfi either, but I’m also not trying to reinvent the wheel. CFI is the most streamlined way to the 1500 hours. Most likely you’ll work at the school you trained at (pick a busy school with lots of turnover) so you won’t have to relearn a new airport environment. Also building 1500 without CFI is going to take a lot more networking and moving around to find work.
      Airline training is no joke. They’re going to expect you to know IFR flying. If you’ve been buzzing around VFR towing banners or aerial survey work for 1500 hours you may have trouble keeping up with the airline training.

    I got my private license in 2001 and my dream was to become a professional pilot, however it was not to be. I never had enough money to get enough hours in a week to move forward. I could only fly 2 hours a week and I wasn’t getting anywhere with that. I haven’t flown in 15 years but I still look outside when I hear an airplane go by. I wanted to do agricultural flying.

    Thanks so much Siegwart Aviator for this video. I’m about a month away from getting my CPL and this video couldn’t have come at a better time. I’ll most likely go on to get my CFI since it’ll make me more marketable and I have a great passion for teaching about flying, but I seriously cannot wait to be sitting up in the front seat of a jet or turboprop someday soon hopefully.

    Great video Siegwart Aviator! Very informative! I’m a fairly low-time, Commercial pilot that owns and operates a scenic biplane ride business in Southern Utah. I’ve got around 750 hours at this point and am trying to figure out how I can get to that magic 1500-hour mark a bit quicker. My goal is to get into flying fires as I’m also a retired municipal and wildland firefighter. It can definitely be a challenge to build hours but as you pointed out so well, there are certainly many jobs out there if you just go looking and/or get a little creative. Thanks for sharing this great info!

    I think my main question is: Where do I find these jobs? I have a little over 300 hours and I really don’t wanna be a CFI. I’ve looked online everywhere and I cannot for the life of me find anything that will hire for under 500 hours TT. Most are actually around 1200-1500TT even for “low-time” jobs. Any ideas where I can look? Btw, great video man!

    • @AviatorMark
      @AviatorMark  2 года назад +4

      Network network network is probably the best advice I can give in that regard. Go out to the airports, make your face familiar, go to aviation events. On social media, LinkedIn is best but all the socials can help. I’ve had friends get jobs that had hundreds of hours less than the posted minimum just because they had an internal recommendation or a friend at the company. Aviation is still a very small community so it still is more about who you know than what you know at this point, especially with these low-time jobs. Good question and thanks for watching. I might do another video with greater details about this very topic since it seems to be a point of interest for many.

      1200-1500 hr jobs are for pic. with the amount of hrs you have so far you should be looking for sic jobs like sitting right seat in a c208 or PC-12. its a great way to build time until you can upgrade to pic.
