Obviously an article just to get some attention. This writer does not have a clue about the industry, how could they ever call an airline pilot a top 5 glam job in today's airline industry. Sure everyone dreams of flying and flying a big jet, but when you find out what it is really like to be an airline pilot, it is not that glamorous.

They couldn't even get the airline pilot pay correct. How about starting out at a large regional airline and only making $19,000 the first year for airline pilot pay. Yes that is $19,000 flying a jet that is worth approx. 25 million and 50 plus passengers in all kinds of weather, at all different hours, with no life or schedule. Sounds great doesn't it. Do you think the best an brightest are going for this???

These are the articles around the internet and the ones that flight schools will show new pilots to get their money for flight school.

If you are going to be an airline pilot you had better find out the truth first. Articles like this have no idea what is going on. It is a great experience but find out the truth before signing up!
