👋 About Me 👋
I started college in 2021 and originally had my eyes set on becoming a doctor. After I realized that wasn't for me, I started studying business and finance while working sales jobs during the summer. After selling Pest Control and an internship in finance, I decided to look into becoming a pilot. A couple of flights later, I was hooked and decided that making money while flying jets doesn't sound too bad! Subscribe to follow the journey!

    Superb, so specific and so soulful experience between a son and his mother. I also had the privilege of living that unique experience with my own mother in the late 80 s when I was flying. Why did you not film the landing? For me it the most challenging and most beautiful part of a flight to be proud of even if only the pilot knows for himself he made a specially perfect kiss landing or , in a strong crosswind, a perfect low wing or crab or mix of the two approach and landing with first the upwind main, then, the downwind main, then finally, the nose wheel. Congratulations for your hard work and fast developing aviation career. Hi from Belgium Luke, be careful, enjoy each flight, and thumbs up.

      It was such a great experience. The camera mount fell off unfortunately prior to the landing and my mom didn't film it so we didn't get any footage of it this time! It definitely is the best part though I'll make sure to get it next time. Thanks for watching!!

    Congratulations, Luke! I came across your channel while I was doing research for my son who is in high school. He wants to be an airline pilot and I’m trying to figure out the best route for him to go. Could you tell me what the advantage is to going to an ATP flight school as opposed to a four year university? Obviously, I know the cost is much less. But if you are not able to fly with the airlines until age 23 (if I have that correctly) why would someone right out a high school want to do this route?

      Need your IPAD, headset, flashlight, foggles. Get you a check list from them and that's about everything. Store everything in your Foreflight document in different folders by stage. Be prepared for the program to not be as short as advertised. I just finished and it was 6 months over what claimed, and that is without failures or errors on my part.

    • @thatpilotluke
      @thatpilotluke 20 днів тому

      well you have a certain amount of hours that are allotted to you for each stage of the program. now i only reccomend trying to fly as much as possible if you're willing to put in the time and study when you're not flying - or else you're probably just wasting your money. you've got to be prepared and study on the ground to be able to progress rapidly while flying. I flew about 3-6 times per week. Depends on weather, plane availability, your instructor, etc. But yeah they want to keep you flying at least 4 times a week.
