I love your videos, keep ‘em coming.

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.

Extremely useful information man. Straight to the point and precise.

Dig the content man! Just finishing CFI school in hopes to land an instructing job soon

Nice summary, thank you.

Update for the airlines' side of things. The regionals, specifically SkyWest, have changed their pay. First year first officers now make $92 an hour!

@bonchie1 Год назад

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 would like to see a video on your tips for networking on the corporate side

Im 46, kids are almost 18. Sounds like Corporate might be the way to go. Could still have a 20 year career.

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?

@AF_CSL Год назад

Great stuff

@chrisbowpiloto 3 года назад

Nice video, but you busted one of my pet peeves. Corporate IS commercial! This would be more accurately named "corporate vs. Airline" but that doesn't have the same ring, so I'll give you a break 😉

@7jbk44 Год назад

What’s the difference between commercial and corporate?

@chrisbowpiloto Год назад

@@7jbk44 By definition anytime the pilot is getting paid it should be considered commercial., so corporate is a form of commercial flying. This video uses the word commercial as synonymous with airline.

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.

@erinpotts6137 3 года назад

Wow, lots of great information. You make it easy to understand the pros and cons of both choices. I'm glad you are happy with your choice. Sweet music an pics for the intro.

Im considering corporate with low time pilot great video

@cmtebespalez 10 месяцев назад

Nice video, so what made you move to airlines? I really ‘d like to know. Safe flights!

@Kyle901838 2 года назад

I just put my resume in for the company you currently work at. I’m extremely excited, everything you talk about is what I would want from a flying career. Been toying with idea of the airlines, but I want a company where I feel a sense of belonging!

@mattkennedy3238 3 года назад

I’m 16 and I want to fly in the future when do u think the best time to go to flight school? I was thinking college.

@p_d_a_trfs6585 2 года назад

You should go to a school with an Air Force JROTC since all JROTCs in the U.S. have flight school programs

@treydavis1723 Год назад

Also, what are your thoughts on going to corporate for a while, and the prospects of, after spending years gaining a lot of experience at a corporate role, and going direct to a major airline? Or would it be necessary to go to a regional first? I feel like w the shortage, this may not be necessary.

@adamhamel9784 Год назад

You wouldn't necessarily have to go to a regional, but you would be starting at ground zero in terms of pay and schedule if you went to a major airline, regardless of experience.

@gsp8489 2 года назад

With corporate, are the 7 days "on" actually 7 days GONE, like, GONE GONE, away from home for 7 days straight or is it ON CALL for 7 days and you have random smatterings of trips during that time? For example is it like you might be gone two days, then home overnight and half the next day, then get a call back out for two or three days, then back home a day, then a call for a short out and back to finish the week with? I'm doing my training now and really like everything else about corporate but I think being away 7 days straight every week would be too much time to expect the wife to have to fight the kids and dogs all by herself haha. Could you give me a little insight?

@bonchie1 Год назад

Corporate is a big span. He's talking about Part 135 charter operations. And yes, when you go on for 7 days, you are gone the entire time unless you live in like Dallas or another major metro area. Then you might make it home a few times on your days on just because so many flights end up back there. In Part 91, i.e. flying a jet for a private company, you don't work a schedule like that. It's more all over the place, but very often, you can end up at home most nights because business meetings are typically day trips.

@dannylengyel5830 Год назад

Are corporates commuter policies different from the airlines? Do you need 1500 hours to get hired at corporate?

@PilotFlyingJay Год назад

Did you ever find out

@bonchie1 Год назад

No. There is no set requirement. Everything instead revolves around insurance minimums. Many 135 operators start at 1200 hours. Part 91, you could need as little as 1000, but they may want some turbine time in there.
