One Month Flying The Boeing 757 & 767 | 43,500 Miles, 12 Flights, 4 Countries
Your Path to United Airlines: bit.ly/UALPilotApplication ... In May 2023, I was a "lineholder" for the first time as a United Airlines pilot flying the 757 & 767. In this video, I'll teach you what it means to transition from being a reserve pilot to holding a line, how trip trading impacts your schedule, and what it's like to fly 43,500 miles in one month. On an average month, I have 16-18 days off. So, to be clear, this month was a major exception as I brought myself down to 12 days off and flew 6 international 3-day trips.
To all of the future pilots watching... I'm so glad to be back with you after a year-long break from filming. My decision to pause RUclips coincided with a few major...

    At this point, I am convinced that United doesn’t care about flight training at all and United Aviate Academy is just a poster child for its “good leads the way” marketing message because whenever they talk about the school they only talk about how many women and minorities are at the school but never discuss any actual flight training accomplishments or achievements.

    Future video idea: To the extent you're able to arrange it, and without interfering with the process, perhaps you could cover recurring training from the perspective of a younger guy who doesn't already have many years and thousands of hours in type. I could imagine working out an arrangement with UAL such that a video could be approachable for the general public who know little/nothing about the ongoing training pilots go through to train for not only the "boring" routine flights but also the unexpected. Though some "aviation insider"-focused RUclipsrs have talked about how scenarios derived from actual experiences have been integrated into recurrent training - Perhaps you could put together a piece looking at that as a more passenger-facing presentation showing how safety has dramatically improved in recent times. While I realize its probably best to not cite recent incidents (at any airline) specifically, a broader overview might be useful to assuage some individuals that, no, airplanes don't (normally) "fall out of the sky" even if something does go wrong... Not only are airplanes engineered to minimize risk even if something goes sideways, pilots are also trained in an ongoing basis to further limit risk.
