Flight Schools That Get The Inexperienced Pilot Into The Flight Deck

Sure you can get into a CRJ aircraft with no experience via a fast track flight program like Langaair. Sure why not sell yourself out and gain experience while flying a 25 million dollar aircraft and 50 people around the country. What a great way to learn to fly. The airline love it since you will do it for nothing and the flight schools love it since you will finance many thousands and make them rich. These are the only people who win in this deal.

You as a future airline pilot think you are the winner. Oh but how you are mistaken. Sure you get to fly a nice new regional jet. But you get to fly it making poverty wages while being at least $50,000 in debt. Some of the pilots I fly with are over $100,000 in debt.

But wait you get to lose for years to come while flying that nice regional jet. Because you sold your soul the airline industry pays poverty wages for years to come. When you get to upgrade to Captain a few years later you might start making a little dent in that debt but because you are getting married and buying a house that doesn't make much of a dent.

So go ahead and sell your soul. Continue to make the regionals only a time builder for the inexperienced. Make the flight schools and regional airlines rich while you get to fly that new regional jet.

This is an interesting post that gets the same point across about regional airline pilots.
