One Month Flying The Boeing 757 & 767 | 43,500 Miles, 12 Flights, 4 Countries

- Your Path to United Airlines: bit.ly/UALPilotApplication ... In May 2023, I was a "lineholder" for the first time as a United Airlines pilot flying the 757 & 767. In this video, I'll teach you what it means to transition from being a reserve pilot to holding a line, how trip trading impacts your schedule, and what it's like to fly 43,500 miles in one month. On an average month, I have 16-18 days off. So, to be clear, this month was a major exception as I brought myself down to 12 days off and flew 6 international 3-day trips.
To all of the future pilots watching... I'm so glad to be back with you after a year-long break from filming. My decision to pause TH-cam coincided with a few major events: ALPA (our pilot union) passed an important new pilot contract, and I moved to San Francisco, where I'm flying domestically on 757 across the country and to Hawaii. I hope you enjoy this video, filmed in May 2023, and can't wait to hear how else I can support your journey to the flight deck!

Excited to be back with all of you making videos after a little over a year! So, what should I film next?
Why did you stop making videos for so long? You’re my favorite aviation TH-camr and inspired me to try to become a pilot.
@@user-vg2mk2gy4hI touch on that in the video + a little note is in the video description :)
So excited to hear you are coming back. Since you've been gone, I've started my aviation journey. I am endlessly thankful for your motivational videos and look forward to your return.
@@SwayneMartinPilot thanks
Wooh! I fly exclusively united for work, and every time I’m on a 757 or 767 I’m always looking for you in the cockpit.
I fly DEN IAD a lot. You ever on that route?
My favorite TH-camr is back!
You two need a vlog ❤
You both my favorite ❤️
Amen! Miss you two together in videos.
4th!
My two favorite TH-camrs
When I saw this on my for you page, it brought me to tears that you came back. We missed you so much.
Frr😢
Brought you to tears? Lol. WTF
75’s…the most underrated plane in the sky.
Gonna be a sad day when they're gone.
Passengers don’t like the 757, because it is a tight long tube on rather long trips with tiny windows and noisy cabin.😡😡😡
With a bit over 1000 deliveries it got its fair share of market. Still is widely used by Delta in America and by United for transatlantic routes. Can be modifies for cargo, serving for FedEx and UPS until there are literally no more spare parts being manufactures. Plane spotters love. Given that the aircraft is a bit niche, I wouldn’t say it is underrated. A321ceo has more sells, but it is noticeably cheaper to operate.
@@interstellaraviator6437welcome to the convo Captain Obvious. We could explain it to you, but no one brought their crayons.
@@MCMXI1, I mean, I really don’t get why people keep calling B757 underrated.
This was my goal and dream growing up. However, times were different then. Much more competitive back in the 80s. No pilot shortage and the industry was smaller than today and was peppered with ex military pilots. I am fortunate to have been able to own a Cessna 172 and a Piper Comanche with a couple of great partners. At 63, now I only live vicariously through videos like this. Good job Swayne.
You could always fly part 91, 124, or 135 jet operations!
@@VictoryAviationwhat's pt 124 ? never heard that
Just completed my Flight Operation Internship at United! Hoping to return one day and join you all!
Great to see you back, Swayne! Excited to see what the future holds for you🙂
I hope you and partner and doing well.
Do a collab with Paul(Mylayoverlife), would be amazing...
I totally agree!
Also maybe Sara Maika

That's awesome! Stop me if we run into each other in the terminal
@@SwayneMartinPilot will do. Hopefully we bump into eachother one day! All the best
@@SwayneMartinPilot also where do you get your shirts? They look good. I'm guessing they're not standard issue lol
Wanted to become a pilot at a young age, then in 2022 i came across you on TH-cam and was motivated even more when i started watching your videos. I made sure to always work hard on my grades so i can become a pilot but then 1 year ago when you stopped posting videos my motivation kept getting lower, got lost and didn't know what to do anymore, but when i saw this video it brought back my spirit and motivation so im grateful and excited that your back and will be posting more videos 😊
Great that you’re still alive! I’ve missed you!
Glad you are back! I am 65 and I will never be a pilot but I enjoy your videos! Wish you the best.

Clearly the best youtube chanel on aviation vlog. I hope you continue your youtube journey and post more frequently.
I flew through Shannon Ireland a few times going back and forth to the middle east with the Army, the last time we ended up having to overnight in Shannon. Such a gorgeous area and the inn we stayed in had a pub attached from the 1700's

You’re an inspiration, Swayne! Keep up the great work!
Airplane geek and northern-New Jersey-resident, United Premier flyer here. Great photography and fascinating 'what being a pilot is like' content. Also nice to see footage from western Ireland, Iceland, and Lima - you have an eye for the most evocative scenery.
My only complaint is how long the gap was since your last video. Keep it up, keep flying, and enjoy life! Thanks again.
Miss seeing your videos, glad to see you back!
PLEASE MAKE MORE VIDEOS. everday ive been checking your TH-cam channel to see if you uploaded something. Thank you so much !
Nice to hear from you back again!
