Airline Pilot Schools

The airlines are really starting to hire. The airline pilot schools are starting to look for students. You have thought about being a pilot with the airlines for years. Is now the time to make the jump?

Have you checked out the price at some the airline pilot schools? WOW are they expensive!

The regional airlines are really hurting for pilots. Some regional airlines have lowered their pilot minimums to 600 total time and 50 multiengine. There is less of a need to go to the expensive flight schools.

When I learned to fly I went to the local airport and took flight lessons. I also spent a lot less money and was able to work full time. In today's airline market a future pilot could go this route and still have a great chance at being hired at an airline. Look at all of your options. The airline pilot flight schools are not the only way to become a airline pilot.

Good luck, the airline road is full of ups and downs. Gain as little debt as you can when getting into this business because it can be tough.
