Why Career Pilots Choose ATP

Building Quality Flight Time

Airline Industry Update with Kit Darby

When preparing for an airline career, “You should acquire flight time that can do you the most good rather than just filling spaces in your logbook. For example, a pilot with 11,000 hours total time certainly had the quantity required, but unfortunately for him, the quality was somewhat lacking—only 50 of those hours were in multiengine (ME) airplanes. The regional airline he hoped to work for noted both his lack of total twin time as well as twin currency and Q&A suggested he reapply when he could show recent experience in line with their stated minimum of 300 hours ME time. He returned some six months later with the requisite time and was hired.”

That "hiring puck" will be coming back into play. — Wayne Phillips. Published in AOPA Flight Training, January 2009.
