Welcome to my channel! I am a corporate pilot, and I want to give you an inside look at the world of aviation. I am going to give you answers to common questions about private jets, such as, who is flying on them, how much does it cost, and how do I become a corporate pilot?
I want to open up to you about my personal career path, and dive into the realities of a career in aviation. I will be honest about the pros and cons of being a pilot, and give a real world look at how to balance your personal life and career.
In association with informative topic videos, I will bring you along on trips so you can see what a day in the life of a private jet pilot is like. Thank you in advance for your support, and I look forward to growing this channel with your help!
"I would like to inquire a Citation Longitude pilot whether the aircraft can fly up to six to seven hours at its longest during long-distance flights, and if its long-range cruising speed is indeed 0.74 Mach."
Great video I worked 135 for 6 years decided to take a part 91 job I love it but I am considering going back to 135 possibly flex jet or airlines not sure what I want to do at this point.
That citation in the thumbnail with the blue design on it, im pretty sure I see that plane all the time fly in at our FBO at Miami signature. Is wonder if that’s you guys lol
*Spectacular view and that sunset just beyond the mountains! Was privileged to fly into Las Vegas at nighttime! Fell in instant-love ~ my experience did not disappoint!!!* 💖💖💚💚💖💖
So, these costs I am assuming are just the cost to fly regardless of people. But if you have multiple people, or are willing to fly with random people, what would be the individual cost?
Nice video very interesting! In your opinion, which one has more often early morning (4-7am) take offs? And which one has more often takeoffs after 9pm?
Nice video! I’m a real CJ3 Captain and i’m a Flight Simulator addicted, so good to see the real bird flying, i’m used to fly the Longitude on MS flight simulator, i build some throttle levers with AT/TOGA buttons and realy enjoy it. Today, for coincidence the N715VM (G550) is in my home town. Safe flights Captain!🙌🏻🙏🏻
The time savings of flying private is a huge deal. Even a 60 minute flight time via commercial airlines with a laptop bag requires an hour of pre-boarding time and another 30 minutes to de-plane and exit the terminal. If the project is in a small town with no commercial service, then you can expect even more time for ground transfers.
Hey man, I'm in the process of getting my private pilots license. If you could give me one piece of advice for getting hired as a part 135 pilot what would it be? The longitude is a dream plane of mine to pilot on a regular basis. Thank you for the inspiration.
Awesome! I’m looking to move to train at a local academy there. The goal is to complete my flying certs and stay in the Loma Al area to fly corporate. Can I pick your expertise? Semper Fi, Manny
so whats the hll is wrong with Garmin. Isnt it pretty confusing to mix up metric and imperial units? Dont know if that is common thing but it kinda stick out on this video.
Good stuff. Only thing I would quibble with is that corporate can be even better than you are describing (you seem to be talking about Part 135). Plenty of Part 91 corporate jobs out there now where you aren't on call all the time, get lots of time off, and get paid a lot of money. But networking is key.
It's the same in the corporate world, though. Everything is going up. SICs in jet jobs are easily making $70-90K now starting, and if it's a Part 91 job, they work a heck of a lot less than an airline guy without any of the hassle of seniority.
I've heard that 300 hours a year is considered the upper limit for charter. Any more then that and it's more financially viable to own instead of charter.
