I am a 14 year old who loves commercial aviation, and I hope to become an A320 pilot when I get old enough. Your podcasts are so useful, so inspirational, and so entertaining that I can do nothing but thank you for all of your hard work. Please continue to inspire people of all ages around the world. Thank you SO much!
Diego Arpino same! I have loved planes from the age of 4! I still love these machines now at the age of 20 and want to become a pilot of a airbus a320
Now it's 2023. You're an adult now. How is your dream of becoming a pilot going?
I feel old reading this because I'm 41.😂
@@soupwifey completely forgot about this comment. 19 now, currently a student private pilot and I enjoy every second. No matter how expensive it’s been, it’s damn worth it.
Now that I’ve been exposed to aviation more I’m unsure of what I want to do in the future because there are so many options. However, A320 pilot is still up there :)
Be safe y’all
@@soupwifey yeah
Good day, sir! I am a 35-year-old guy who just got his commercial pilot license and aiming to be a airline pilot. I found this channel just these days and so excited that so many interesting material for me, for one who is interested in being a pilot as well. It took years for me to finally make up my mind to be a pilot. I am quite interested that what and how a pilot, captain made himself/herself became a pilot, their story, their hard work story. This about 2-year-ago-uploaded video, the words are really inspired and encouraging. And I just download the App, Mentour Aviation you mentioned at another video. I definitely stay on tune and excited to see the upcoming videos which tell stories and also the professional parts as well. Have a good day, sir!
Such great advice. Wish schools (I'm in the US) would do a better job helping kids define career goals and a plan to achieve them. I was a terrible student in high school because I didn't have any plans for what I wanted to do after I graduated. Luckily I found my way but it took a lot of fumbling around and wasted time.
You are exactly right. Now that I know I want to be a pilot, my grades went up tremendously but your right if you really want something you have to work your ass off. My grades went up a whole letter in everything. Glad you shared this with people and me. Thank you
You are helping us a lot! Keep going
Hi Captain. I must
say your videos are truly motivating and gives that much needed push to keep focus
on the main goal for us future Aviators. There are a lot of people who would
only give us negative advice and thoughts ......Again Thank you for keeping up the good work and helping to motivate those of us to keep on track and focus on the goal at hand…..
This one sure gave me even more motivation to work even harder..
I swear ur video has pushed me strongly towards my GOAL
A million THANKS
All I can say for now may God be with you, I an not a pilot but I am looking into, & watching your videos gives me 100% hopes. Have a blessed day
you are the best! I cant wait to get up in the same skies with you!
thanks for sharing your story mentour. and thanks for providing information and motivating people who are looking to build a career in aviation
Thank you, your videos actually give me so much knowledge, and gives me hope to one day fulfil my dream!
My friend suggested me this channel. I really liked your channel and its really an inspiration for me and helps me to keep my dream alive when i feel down sometimes . Thanks and keep it up. ..!

I love your channel mentour pilot, you really inspire me I love aviation from the age of 4 and still love aviation it’s my passion it’s very hard for me to get it and want it desperately
I see many many similarities in my situation/story... And I'm now training in FTE! Hope to get to your position one day! :)
Thank you for your motivational videos, i have almost watched all of them. I wanted to become a pilot since i was like 9 years old, then i thought about being a doctor because of my parents but since i went 14 i dreamed about being a pilot again. I just turned 16 and now im try to figure out where im going to study. Im from south america, Ecuador, but i would love to study in US as i have family there but meanwhile i will continue enjoying your videos and getting more and more inspiration with each new video i watch.
Fantastic video, you are definitely my inspiration to become a pilot. From now on i'll stay concentrated and focused on what i wannna do. Really looking forward to the next part sir! :)
WOW! :D, I always love hearing other peoples experiences of getting to their place. By all means please continue this.

my father worked at our local airport so i was there quite often. i remember us playing tennis at the airport's tennis field and i usually took a break for every plane coming in or taking off :-)
i always wanted to go down the pilot route, tho i grew pretty tall around age 12 and so they told us that i won't be able to be a commercial pilot if i only grew 4 or 5 cm more.. so i had to give up because the risk was way too high
Mentour Pilot thank you for the Vids. They are really helpful.
I am from India..There is Cadet pilot Program here n i have i qualified for the last round which is on this friday..19th Feb. there are couple of questions i would like you to answer for me if possible before friday
1. The Capt. continues an approach beyond minimum’s, he tell’s you that he’s shot this approach a 1,000 times, know’s the area, and everything’s fine. What will you do?
2. You are talking to the Capt( In flight or before flight)., and you smell alcohol. Although you didn’t see him drinking, what would you do?
Hey mentour, i was wondering if u could give some more information about trimming the plane. How does i work? When? Why? What if u don't?
I really love your videos, you are a big inspiration
You are so lucky with the opportunities that you got when you were younger
My dream job is to be an airline pilot and I want to work for British airways, Thomas cook, Monarch or Thomson
hi,i am a female, 17 years old and i would like to ask you some questions,because this is my dream job and almost everyone keep on telling me that way too hard to actually become a pilot and other stuff and i would like to clarify those questions by asking someone that has experience and actually knows about this job :
1)how much exactly does it cost to become an airline pilot?
2)how many years would it take until i can fly with an airline?
3)what exactly do i have to do/the exact steps to be a pilot and what subjects should i take in high school?
4)many people say that nowadays pilots don't earn as much as they use to,can you tell me how much do you earn?
5)being a pilot means that you can actually travel around the world?
6)at what age ill be able to be a pilot
and finally what exactly do airlines require to recruit you?
Giliana Petrova Hello
Sorry for replying 2 years later. 😂😂
Well hopefully I can be of some use if you have not any questions answered.
1) It costs a lot but depends a lot depending on the flight school. For me, I will get a degree which will cost 30,000 and a flight school costs around 50-100 thousand and a type rating costs around 10-15 thousand (all in pounds). So it would cost a lot. As I'm in the U.K. I would be spending around 90-100 thousand on my education for piloting.
It is very expensive but don't worry, I'm not rich and I believe I can save up money by getting a small job early and saving, getting some money off of family and finally getting a student loan.
2) finish high school by 16
Get a levels by 18
Get degree by 21 (22 if you take a gap year)
Spend 1-2 years in flight school and getting a type rating, so by the time you are 23-25, to get a small regional job.
3) he has a whole video on this (which is probably what I have seen in these 2 years)
4) regional pilots earn between 15-30 thousand pounds. However after some time and years in the large airlines you can earn up to 150,000 pounds.(which is basically covering all your debts in 1 year, although u would have payed it off way before that)
5) yes being a pilot can take u to many destinations around the world, but only if it is a large airline and you fly long or medium haul.
6) you can become a pilot for regionals as soon as you get your 1500 hours at around 24-25 (at the youngest)
I hope you are still around and using your account to see this. All said by a 15 year old.
Zameer Nizam wait..when you do your atpl course in flight school you dont have to apply at regional airlines...you can apply at major airlines
Have u done the SAT1 and some of the SAT2?
@@zameernizam3825 is there any job guarantee or not
@@deepalisaraf6011 no there is no job garantee if you go through a flight school. But if you try to through an pilot cadet program through an airline such as the British airways future flyer program, there is a guaranteed job at the end. Some other airlines also do this scheme such as easy jet and virgin. The issue with this is that it is very hard to get into with around 3500 applicants and less than 100 getting in
Great vid by the way
Thank you so much for your videos and sharing all your knolage and passion on aviation.
2 Question:
1- Can i move to sweden and find a job not being a sweden citizen to pay my flying hours , it can be done ?.
2- do you think that the role of the pilot in cometial aviation will be replaced by ground pilot like the drone pilots ?.
thank you very much .
It is "standard template". The life is different from "standard template". So goals change as you become older. Do you know many examples, when "standard template" gets to best result? To my opinion, it depends on many factors, which you can't influence. So "work hard" is direct, but not good advice. My correction is "understand principles, and make decision". But it is not simple when you are teenager...
Hi a bit of a strange question... [sorry]....
The sensation of flying is that, unlike driving a car on a straight road and not steering much to keep a straight line, there is, in the air, this fluidity and consequently the unpredictability of where the plane will be a mile or so ahead from your current location if careful inputs are not applied.
This could mean shifts away from the localiser and glidepath on a final approach to land and deviations that a professional pilot monitors and maintains.
What i want to know is, how easy is it to keep the ILS crossed in finals and how quickly does the glide slope pointer move at short finals and for example at 1nm out what is the maximum difference in altitude away from the glide one can be to be ok to land - are these standards set by the industry and do pilots get questioned by their bosses if deviations occur.
If my memory serves me correctly i saw a pilot pull up leveling off at around 40 ft above the threshold of a runway for a couple of seconds before making a late touch down. At first I thought it was a poor landing but it was deliberate because i noticed afterwards his parking was at the other end of the airport. Travelling at over 140mph is it easy to get your touch down point or does flying fluidity introduce this 'feeling' of randomness and you are always off by l00's of m's.
Thank you.
Thank you!!!.
Not sure if you have seen the approaches to Madeira -- no stability in these approaches whatsoever.
Have you ever been tempted to fly this approach yourself and perhaps you have already done a few. If so, what has been your experience with these types of approaches where stability seems out of the window (excuse the pun:)) from 500 ft all the way down to touch-down. How do bosses assess these types of approaches. They seem pretty random. Every pilot is doing their own random curve to the threshold.
Thank you once again!
Man, you are my authority :)
how do you define yourself?and introvert or extrovert?how do you deal with stress when you are airborne and encounter any problem
since first time i saw a plane i wanted to fly
Just out of curiosity.. do you think there are any realistic sims out there available to the public?
I am 17 and I'm hoping to be a pilot when I leave school
I am 30 years old. I want to be a pilot, of at Cessna any model, unfortunately I fear this dream will never become true. Living in shit hole county, with poverty. I am just learning programming, so that I will get jobs, and save money for training and licence...
What if you live in a 3rd world class country like Argentina in my case, you are already a private pilot and you have an European passport. I am not rich middle class person. It would be OK to go to Europe or US and work to pay for the rest of the career? I am 20yo.
thank u so much for answering my questions,you have been very helpful!! i have a few more questions though,i wear glasses cause i have astigmatism and myopia,also im kind of short,are those gonna be an obstacle for me?and also how many years flying until i become a captain? is this job stressful and difficult?and what grades should i have?do i need ielts or gcse ? thank you,again!
I have a question, I am no longer in school so I cannot aim for higher grades. In Australia most flight schools don’t actually ask for school grades, however would it be a better idea to do the study now ie maths/physics before starting school ?
Hey Mentour:) ;) Is it required to Achieve or take the Flight Instructor Courses such as Certified Flight Instructor Course, Certified Flight Instrument Instructor and Multi- Engine Instructor Course In order to become a Pilot?
Hello, I've basically watched a few videos and Ive grown very interested in your method of becoming a commercial airline company pilot! This is of course, my dream as well, and I know that I'm still at a young age to decide (13 years old) , but I noticed that my local university offers a degree in aeronautical engineering. Is that a degree that would be useful when applying to become a pilot? Also, I would want to go to my local flight school (FAA Approved). Will attending the flight school and studying aeronautical engineering be paths that could lead to becoming a pilot?
Hi! Thank you for another great informational video, just a quick question, what is you opinion on getting training through university? One of my options for university's says you will graduate with a bachelors degree and a CPL along with a Multi-Engine rating and Multi-Instrument rating. I know that a lot of the airlines now a days require you to have a degree of some sort so I believe this should be a great way. I live in Canada by the way, so I just wanted to get you opinion on this method.
Thanks!
Yes, did some more research and its sponsored by the Government, thank you very much for the response, it means a lot!
I am 15 years old and aspire to become a commercial pilot . I am from India . Is there any civil sponsored aviation program here. I am unable to find anything over Google. Or is there any scholarship program. Please help.
Am 30 years old. working as a database admin. not married ....living in africa ...zambia to be precise and gosh the are major challenges to becoming a pilot. our country has no national airline or any sponsored skim for wannabe pilots. I had good grades, went to university .. pushing for my masters in IT. are there any chances that I could get sponsorship still .....? its been my dream from childhood.
I do have the right to work there provided am accepted for any of the sponsored program. could you give me a heads up on any of the programs on offer for which i can apply?
thanks dude.
from which flight training school you are trained ? which aircraft you fly ?
in which airline you work ?
ok thank you so much . Can you tell me the best training school here in USA ?
Not many people do know whats they need to do in life, also when they have 20 years old....and you knew earlier.Congratulation.
Hi!
What kind of aircraft do you fly? Btw I subscribed
Currently flies a Boeing 737NG I think
I am glad he got his dream job. I am a nervous flyer. I know aircrafts are safe but I think we were meant to stay on the ground. No disrespect intended.
Flying is the safest form of transport. Much safer than cars.
hey,mentour may I know what does a second officer do?
Tjena! är det ,möjligt att få ditt mail då jag faktiskt har en lång rad frågor som jag bara måste ställa en riktig pilot som dig?
Do you have a small plane of your own ?
Good day sir. I'm 19 yrs old now and I enjoyed watching your videos and I start thinking to pursue my dream to become a pilot. I am currently studying right now. Is it too late for me to become pilot?
+Mentour Pilot thank you for responding my comment mentour. I started processing my requirements for BS AVIATION here in philippines 😄. Have a good day and safe flight mentour😄
Hell no it's not too late. You can start when you're 40 and still have a good career in aviation. I'm 19 as well, my PPL check ride is in a week!
they dont make you shave?
Hello Sir ,I'm currently in standard 12th , i have Physics, chemistry, maths ,English and mechanical maintenance as my subjects in 12th (boards).Sir I just wanna ask you that what percentage I would require in 12th to get into flight school in New Zealand and also I'm wistful with my specs of power -4. And at the same time I'm too much enthusiast with my dream of becoming airline pilot.. !Please guide me !
I like to watch your video and it give me information which I need but I want to ask that my age is 25 and I want t start my career as a commercial pilot what you say about it .. is my age ok for it
sir, can you tell me important subjuects to be a commercial airpline pilot i need in feature?
Thanks for the Video. I am 26 years old and really want to become a pilot. Do you think I am too old already as I have been told that seniority is everythi5. I am in the United States.
No
Hello Mentour! Does it matter which flight school you go to?
CAE oxford in London is no1
I've been watching your videos for a while and enjoying them very much, especially videos on technical procedure, e.g. category 3 landings, etc. Sadly, this video answers the question "How did I become a pilot?" with the answer "my family are super-rich." I can't watch any more of your videos. Sorry.
+dharma6662013 Hi. I have no idea how you got to this conclusion. My family is normal middle class and I got my training paid for by a government program that is open to everyone.
Never assume, it makes an ass out of U and Me. :)
Did you want him to pretend to be poor?
Do you think that the military is a great way to start our flight training or would a flight school be better?
School
Hi, I am 22 years old and currently a student at Stapleford Flight Centre (London). I have no degree, just equivalent grades, and I am not very good at maths and science. In fact I only know how to do the basics. Does this make it impossible for me to become a pilot?
No, you just have to pass the ATPL theory exams
But if iam 20 years old with not that good grades the only option left is to pay the pilot education by myself? Still worth it even with a million kronor in loans?
***** I dont have bad grades but not the best, i have C to B grades and that type of guy that always been doing my best in school and been one of the most motivated persons in class but never had the A grades. Reasons why could be that i never had a goal to reach for as you had with becoming a pilot. I got interested in aviation and in pilot as a profession for about 2 years ago so im not one of those who has been dreaming about becoming a pilot all my life. Im still very determinated that being a pilot would be the dream job cos i dont want a normal 9 to 5 job and i want to work and live abroad. I want a exciting job that thrills me every day. What i heard is that is almost impossible to new educated pilots to get hired and many even go without job for a long time. Is that only because the pilots wants to work in the same country they live in, for example Sweden? or is the situation the same world wide for pilots? I mean i would definitly move to Asia and work many years if that is the easiest way to get a job. Im just being very very hesitated if i should go for it or not. Thanks for your videos anyway! very appreciated.
Tack för videon du lagt upp, tro eller ej men det behövs och tack vare sådana personer som dig finns det videon som den här. Mina känslor för aviation har precis dykt upp vid 16 års ålder, jag går gymnasium 1:an. Jag har gjort mycket undersökning, det jag inte är riktigt säker på är lite om att CSN täcker för 500000kr men är det så att man måste ge resten alltså 250000 själv eller kan man låna från banken eller något, för tro mig, mina intressen för att bli pilot är hög!! Och den delen när du sa att du hade ett prefekt record menade du register på svenska. Jag går natur föresten och jobbar häcken av mig. Att bli pilot är det ända jag kunnat tänka på de senaste 5 månaderna så kan du vara så snäll att kontakta mig?!
What company do you fly for
Hello,
Which airline do you work for?
Hi sir, my name is Noah. i'm from India, i want to become pilot its my aim. But no one in my family knows about pilot. I searched and i know that I can join through Indian air force but after that I can earn commercial pilot licence . Sir can you help please and how to contact you.
sir what's your salary when you start and present salary
hello I'm 13 wanted to be a pilot since I was 3 (thanks for the motivation to study) But what subjects would I have to do? @mentorpilot
Hi there! I just want to ask something. If you work for an airline, say Emirates, are you automatically gonna be based in Dubai, and that you have to transfer and live there?
Thanks, I love the videos. Keep em flowing!
I want to become a pilot. I am thinking about getting my pilots lisance then putting job requests in for airlines company like Easy Jet. Would this be the correct way to go for a piloting career or what other path would you suggest?
Nah, for easy jet you need to get on there cadet scheme with l3 or cae academy. Or get your ATPL and a320 type rating and get roughly 500 minium on type. Then you might land a first officer job
With them
what grades do I need In physics and math
I have only one question: FEET or METER, MILES or KILOMETERS?
+Mentour Pilot Was it hard learning to convert the units?
Joseph Nguyen 😂😂😂same
Feet and nautical miles. 5 Years late lol
Hi. In the UK, can I go to university and start training there? I want to be a pilot but don't really know how in the UK. HELP!!!
***** Thanks. I've got a few questions.
1)if i am an emirates pilot, does that mean i have to move to Dubai?
2)i'm 13, so what do you recommend for me to do now at this age if i want to become a airline pilot in the future?
3)is flight training funded by the government in the UK? (flight school)
You do not need a degree to be a airline pilot!!. You need roughly 100k cash or loan and be semi decent at maths and physics to pass the ATPL theory ground school exams
what do you say to making modular atpl while you study?
okay! thanks for the answer. I think im going to study first and then make ATPL.
would you suggest that i got to a flight school or get a bachelors degree at a university
+Mentour Pilot thank man you page has helped me alot
Hello +Mentour Pilot,
Great videos!, can you comment on how is it looked at getting a bachelor's degree first then completing the required licensing? I'm in canada, and my undergrad is engineering.
thanks and happy landings
HEY There Hi! myself from INDIA currently working as software engineer but i wanna switch to pilot can u plzz tell me how to get started would be a great help :)

Why cant I see mentor pilots replies :(
+DeDualGamerz I have no idea. Can you see this?
Mentour Pilot Yes, i see the recent replies just not the order ones for some unfortunate reason. Sorry if this question seems repetitive but Im on my 2nd high school year in sweden and I kind of do not know where to start if i want to become a pilot, would you mind recommending what i should take under concideration and also which flight school do you recommend? I like to travel a lot and visit different countries, would i still have is opportunity as a pilot or do i not have that much free time? Thanks for replying!
He's Swedish right?
Yes.
