Want To Be An Airline Pilot? 10 Jobs To Build Flight Time

Filmed in partnership with Coradine Aviation - LogTen Pro, who made this production possible. If you want to become an airline pilot, you'll need anywhere from 1,000 to 1,500 flight hours in the USA. For many new pilots, getting that experience is a huge challenge. There are 10 common ways to do it... I worked, shadowed, and researched each one in this video. I hope it makes finding the right track for you just a little easier!

When I was building flight time towards my ATP certificate, I used an electronic logbook called LogTen Pro. Tracking my progress towards meeting the numerous ATP requirements was incredibly easy with the software, and it synced to my iPhone, iPad, and Mac. I'm still using it today to log all of my flights as an airline pilot. I partnered with Coradine Aviation so that you can try it out yourself.
