    I love aviation. I am 14 years old, and sadly, the last time I have ever flown was when was 5. My parents don't want me to become a pilot because they think it is dangerous. I love to watch planes from a distance, fly RC planes and drones, and I love watching videos about airplanes. I hope I can make enough money to pay for flight school myself. This video was enough to motivate me towards my dream. Thank you Mentour! :)

      I funded my son all the way through his training to CPL/IR/ATPL theory/MCC/JOC with CTC and Simtech. Total cost GBP150000. He did not get an airline job straight way but after about 10 months was successful in getting a First Officer position with well known UK airline who also funded his type rating on A320/321. Don't let anyone kid you; you and/or your parents need to be aware that it is very expensive to train to be an airline pilot and although we like to believe that we live in a meritocracy you will not get very far without deep pockets. Enjoy!

    8. Being able to sit still for hours doing nothing by scanning you're instruments.
    That is the one skill I do not have and was the main reason why I was turned down for the KLM flight academy (15 yearsa ago). But I still had my PPL (twin engine certified) and from time to time, I get to fly 'home' aircraft that are time-shared. So a pilot flies to Madrid for a a three week vacation, than I will join him and once he is on his destination, I fly the aircraft back, so the aircraft is available to other members of the time-share club. Sometimes I get to take a commercial flight. The thing I like about this, is that I get to fly a lot of different aircraft..

    Good video. Nice dose of reality to make it in this business. It’s not enough to have a CPL MEIR or even an ATPL. The soft skills he talks about are more important for an airline pilot than say a accountant. Rejection is hard for some especially when they spend $100k+ on training and can’t get a job and end up working minimum wage as a Uber driver.

    Thank you captain, for your valuable advices. I've just wondering some tricks about the last topic, for example what kind of psychological reactions or answers expecting from us at the interviews are they ? Maybe this question can be a part of an idea for your upcoming videos. Hereby, we could get closer one more step on ours targets :)
    Thanks a lot again for the advices,
    Best regards from Turkey.

    A friend of mine wanted to be an airline pilot, he was 3 inches shorter than the minimum height requirement of the time. He became a very successful pilot flying to remote Northern Canadian communities with smaller airlines. So, not sure if height is still an issue. Just a thought.

      Hi! Your base will be assigned by your airline depending on where you are needed. Yes, you can always apply for a new job in a different airline if you fulfill the requirements.
      Good luck and pay attention in school!

    Heyo just found your channel bro I love it haha, I got a dream of joining the Air Force, and the point of being able to communicate tho like I got autism and I rly don’t want that to stop me from being able to succeed as a fighter pilot because that’s been my dream since I was a toddler. Got any tips on how to improve?

    Amazing video! May I ask which runway that is and how you are allowed to stand on it?

    • @MentourPilot
      @MentourPilot  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s a small RC runway close to my house. If you look closer you can see the big X that shows that the runway can not be used by aircraft.

    Hi, I'm a 44 year old school (maths) & university teacher (communication skills) who as always wanted to be a pilot. I'm looking for a career change to achieve my goal. I've always had the traits you mentioned in your video, is it too late for me? How realistic is it for me to become a commercial aircraft pilot? Thanks.

    Hey Captain! I want to fly for JetBlue when I get older. I right now live in Albany which is the same distance from JFK and BOS (both are JetBlue hubs). Would I have to move closer to JFK or BOS if JetBlue bases me out of one of those airports?

    • @MentourPilot
      @MentourPilot  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Normally I would say yes, but I am not familiar with this airline so I can’t say for sure. In my case I need to be living within one hour from my base.

      I know a Lufthansa Pilot living 4-5 hours away from Frankfurt (his homebase). So I think it really depends from Airline to airline how far you are allowed to live away from your home base.
