If you have any significant medical history, it can take up to a year to get a medical. I’m a cancer survivor and I had to come up with an extra $3500 for neuropsychological and heart testing, and that included going through referral loopholes so I could qualify to use my health insurance, otherwise it would have been over 5k in testing. Also the neuropsychological test cannot qualify for insurance. My tests went well and after 8 months I finally got my first class medical with no neuropsychological impairment and no heart issues.
Some of us should be blessed because I don’t have the same issue but I have to spend money on fixing my passport that can take 8 months but keep pushing it’s all just fuel dreams are never impossible
@@_hmineee case by case basis. Any form of cancer will pretty much get you deferred no matter how recent you have been in remission. As long as you do not need any medication and do not have any problems after remission, you should be able to get a special issuance first class medical (what I have). For my scenario, I just have to get an after visit summary from my remission doctor saying I am healthy and visit my AME every year until 2029 (after that the FAA will let me know next steps for renewal TBD). No matter what, get your medical before beginning flight school. Us cancer survivors literally cannot predict when we can receive our medicals. Also be prepared for the extra upfront costs of any testing and do not give up. I personally know an airline pilot that survived thyroid cancer and now flies for Southwest. Wishing you many years of remission.
I’m a 12 year old and really want to become a pilot. I came to watch this video to get an overview of how I am going to achieve my goal. I really want to start having a small part time job as soon as I start high school because of the cost.Also thank you very much this video was extremely informative
you should buy a fligt simulator for your pc. i've learned how to fully functionally fly a plane just from that, it will help you learn and train to become a pilot.
@@lkgdvtdgj254 depends how low end you're talking. i have an i5 cpu, integrated graphics, 16gb ram. I have xplane 11 and it runs pretty good.

I like how no one talks about building hours, or it’s briefly mentioned and not emphasized. I getting to 250 hours is one thing but to obtain your atp cert you need at least around 1500 hours.

I don’t really worry about the jobs because I have citizenship somewhere that practically helps you on becoming anything, the only thing that bothers me is the medical certificate, where to find a good flight school/instructor, and the controls of a plane, but I will try not to worry too much because I have faith, inshAllah I will become a pilot one day and inshAllah for the others that has the same dream as me to become a pilot one day too.
@@anime108amv2InshAllah we both make our families proud and become a pilots. The location is within Norway, the people are kind as of where I live. As for me, I’ve decided I don’t really want the free route and instead go for the one called Sandedjord pilot academy. That pilot academy is a private school that costs between 2 to 4.5 million Norwegian Kroners for 2 years. Sure it might be expensive, but like I said, the state loan will help you out. And the government will try to make this as cheap as possible for you. And when you do become a pilot you’ll be able to pay it off in no time, basically, once finished with their pilot academy and you become a certified Captain or FO. Sorry for forgetting to reply, I am also in a rush so sorry if any grammar mistake that appears on my reply. PS; Once becoming a certified Captain or FO live with your parents until you pay the loan off, which would be around 1 to 2 years if I’m not mistaken.
well, in my country (where my currency is weaker) it costs about 9 000$ (PPL), you probably need to check your local flight schools because this guy is mostly talking based on America
Do you have any tips to keep motivation up? I am currently learning with your ground school however I feel like I’m studying less and less because I feel like I’m not retaining the information and it makes learning not fun if I’m not actually “learning.”
Here are two things that have worked for us: 1. The best way to retain information is to "recall" it. Flashcards are a great way to do this, and we have a dedicated flashcard app for this reason. Quizzes are fantastic, too (we have exciting news to share about this soon). Watch the lessons, but combine other learning methods to keep retention high. 2. If you're struggling with the motivation to start a study session, use the "20-minute rule." Only commit to 20 minutes of studying, with no exceptions. The most difficult part of studying is getting started. If you only commit to 20 minutes, it makes it a lot easier to start. The best part? You will almost always study for more than 20 minutes once you get going!
Just keep at it. Repeat lessons. Watch youtube videos on the subjects you struggle more with. It will eventually click. I felt I had gotten at least a 70 but I got a 92 on my written. I really studied on calculations and E6B as well as the cx3 calculator. Turns out I only got 2 calculation questions. Everything was informational. I found that I had retained a lot of info.
It’s a choice between being a pilot and going into the tech field because this is so expensive to get into yet there’s a demand for pilots. Tech is easier to get into in terms of cost of learning but lay offs are common these days
To myself 6 years into the future from now: Hey. Did you make it? All that time in school, motivation from your friends and family. Did it pay off? Are you finally achieving your goal? If yes, I congratulate you. Younger you could only imagine being up there in the skies, flying your mates out to places while now you're up there. I'm proud of you, and what you become. Fly high , captain.
Ever since I was in primary always wanted to be a pilot now I am 34 my dream keeps on ringing write now I am working as an electrician saving frugally every month I wish to start at 40 being a commercial airline pilot is my calling never give up
I'm 20, I'm interested, I'm doing my research. The cost is slightly intimidating for sure. I also live in Canada, and am not sure how accurate this video is for Canadians. More research necessary.
I’m 13 and have been in love with planes for many years now, such fascinating works of engineering to thing that hundred-tonne cabins could get in to the air with the use of gigantic jets. I know barely anyone actually gets in to careers with airlines, especially the high reputation ones like QTR or BAW but I dream of flying A320s for British Airways or Easyjet and I spend virtually all my free time on the X-Plane 12 demo using the most realistic mods I can find like the Zibo 737 and I hope to eventually get the ToLiss A320 as I love the A320 dearly. I know it’s super far away but I can’t wait until Christmas as I was told I could get the full version of XP12 and I’ve already planned to do a big 777 flight from America to Taiwan with a connecting flight to VTBS. My grandad and I both love the 777 and EVA Air. I dream of getting the job one day (I would love to fly the 777 and A320) as I love both planes so much. I know the massive sleepover flight with my friends is the closest I’ll get to the real experience as it’s just not something that a normal person like me could achieve, but I hope that through hard work and resilience one day I could end up sat in that seat, 6 curved windows in front of me and another person who tried their best too to achieve such an amazing role. If there’s any airline pilots who are willing to share their training stories, please reply and tell me! Hopefully my passion for airliners never leaves me as I grow up. I had the incredible opportunity to go gliding with Scouts recently and that was one of the highest moments of my life (quite literally!) and hopefully a flying course will appear within my Air Cadets squadron that I could get on. The Air Cadets building is all sort of falling apart and has black mould everywhere but I’m thankful for anywhere that could get me closer to the amazing opportunity of flying. I am so thankful for being able to find such a wide community online that shares my love for planes, albeit with everyone else knowing much more but maybe one day I’ll get to be one of those people. If you have the time, please tell me your stories if you’re an airline pilot!
here in the united kingdom you only need any class of medical certificate. a five step ATPL Theoretical examination. and you need 100 hours to get a ppl there is also a night rating
If you go the degree route like at Embry Riddle, you can get federal loans. BUT! It’s not enough because the government only pays for educational expenses and flying is not the education side. Which is dumb because it’s the most expensive part. Most people will go with private loans. There’s a few out there like Stratus, Meritize, Sallie Mae and others. I’m in a part 141 degree program. So that has more perks. The program I’m in is estimated at 80k inflated costs. But it takes 2 years because there are classes on the side you have to take. Which I don’t mind because they’re relevant. Be careful with estimated costs at some schools. Most list bare minimums and you will most likely go over that. But my program has free simulator time, self check authority and offers a RATP rating which allows you to fly for airlines at 1250 hours instead of 1500. This video is more a guideline but there are many factors. Like DPEs are in high demand and many people especially at part 61 schools wait 2-6 months for a check ride waiting on a DPE. Schools with self check authority don’t have to wait on an outside check instructor. 👍🏼
hello man, I am an aviation fan and every time someone asks me what job I want to do I always answer: "the pilot", but they remember me that I don't have the money to do it. This is my dream, can you help me??? Can you give me some tips. By the way this video is fantastic.
Is it possible to pursue self-study for ground school after obtaining a medical certification and then attend a flight school to pass the written exam and only pay for the flight portion? Or is that pathway only based upon the flight school?
Think about the implications of self studying for this big of an exam. Our course, for example, is 35 hours long. At only $199, depending on how you value your time, it's a cheap price to pay to have all the information in one place, easy to study. If you study on your own and go to a flight school to get an endorsement, you will pay $70/hr with an instructor one-on-one for them to verify you have the correct knowledge. If you spend more than 3 hours with an instructor (you will), you will pay more than a ground school study program.
I’m currently at 16 hours and more than half way through my ground school with pilot institute, but unfortunately, I haven’t received my medical despite applying for it a year ago, due to a misdemeanor charge (unrelated to drugs, alcohol or theft). Before you start flight school, absolutely get your medical first.
Sir it will be very helpful if you make a video about flight training in USA for International students. Many student of many countries are interested to get their flight training in USA. Can you give a guidelines for those students?
I'm 44 and wish I started at a young age to become an airline pilot. I can only afford to pay my mortgage and currently, I just fly on my home pc simulator with MSFS2020 and some study level add-ons. Nice video with all very good information. I just subscribed to your channel. 😊👍👍💯👆👆🙏🙏

Hi my dream is to be an airline pilot but I have this one problem that is, one of my legs is short and the other one is long.The question is will i be able to pursue my career.
hello i need some advice...my son planning to be a pilot...while he is confused about Flying school , flying degree or a university ( bachelor of pilot technology) Moreover needto know the required flying hours to be certificatified and what are the required license ....do appreciate your time and effort ...thank you
No need for a university degree or something. Going for a flight school is enough. The most difficult parts are the price which is at least $75000 and the minimum of 500 hours of flying to be able to land a job
Very informative video. I had no idea it's so expensive and takes so much time. Better start your training early in your youth and have a rich daddy. Or join the military.
Hi guys I want to become a pilot, but I have a concern regarding obtaining a Class 1 Medical certificate. I have mild color deficiency and have previously failed the Ishihara test. However, I heard that even if I fail it, it doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s over. Instead, I can take alternative color vision tests, such as the Farnsworth Lantern test or the D-15 test. I would really appreciate it if someone could confirm whether this is true, as I don’t want to hold on to false hope. Thank you!
Why wouldn't you get your multi engine rating before you get your commercial so you can count those hours toward your 250 total hours needed for the commercial?
one question is it still okay to apply for piloting exam from a different country instead of my country? if it's possible im looking forward to taking the piloting exam test
I’m seeing people talking about the cost as an obstacle! Trust me, if it’s really your dream you’ll find a way; if not that’s not for you!!! Money can’t be the reason why we can’t afford to turn our dreams into reality! Come on guys!!!
@@behrouzfarahani9637 I totally understand your point of view, but if you live in the United States, then you still got options like financing with loan that you’ll pay back or joining the Air Force Academy
Im 24 and I first obtain my cdl to pay off my credit card debt I’m 24 if I use a year to pay everything off and so on by the time I’m 30 I should be done with everything is that an old age or is it to late ?
What if someone fails the private pilot certificate? Or the commercial pilot certificate would you have to pay again or take another loan again to try again ?
Hello guys I wanna become a pilot, I am currently a 15 year old and I wanna know what is the process before the flight school stuff. For example do I need a 4-year degree and can I get the degree online or will that make the airlines not fully give me credit due to online degrees? Also after that what is the process between getting your degree in a major and getting your medical certificate? Can someone help me out? Thanks!

Is it possible to pursue self-study for ground school after obtaining a medical certification and then attend a flight school to pass the written exam and only pay for the flight portion? Or is that pathway only based upon the flight school?
Think about the implications of self studying for this big of an exam. Our course, for example, is 35 hours long. At only $199, depending on how you value your time, it's a cheap price to pay to have all the information in one place, easy to study. If you study on your own and go to a flight school to get an endorsement, you will pay $70/hr with an instructor one-on-one for them to verify you have the correct knowledge. If you spend more than 3 hours with an instructor (you will), you will pay more than a ground school study program.
I’m gonna be one in the next 4 to 5 years hopefully
How many years does it take to learn to become a commercial pilot
About 4-5 years
Just commercial and not ATP can be less than a year
@@Ava44322 really?
is there anything else they expect for example gcse results, physics etc..
5+
Just did my first lesson a few days ago
Good luck
Maybe one day you will train me
Very informative video, exceptional work 👏🏾
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙌
I’m currently at 16 hours and more than half way through my ground school with pilot institute, but unfortunately, I haven’t received my medical despite applying for it a year ago, due to a misdemeanor charge (unrelated to drugs, alcohol or theft). Before you start flight school, absolutely get your medical first.
Which one is the best in India
Sir it will be very helpful if you make a video about flight training in USA for International students. Many student of many countries are interested to get their flight training in USA. Can you give a guidelines for those students?
How much to become commercial pilot to be employed?
Fuckit I’m Prior military and I’m going for it !!!!
Don't you need a Bachelor's degree? to fly for the airlines?
nope!
Thanks for the great breakdown. Does time in a Part 103 aircraft count toward the 250 needed for commercial?
This is well made video.
Maybe in next life...❤
l have a long sight condition
Very helpful tahmks
I'm 44 and wish I started at a young age to become an airline pilot. I can only afford to pay my mortgage and currently, I just fly on my home pc simulator with MSFS2020 and some study level add-ons.
Nice video with all very good information. I just subscribed to your channel. 😊👍👍💯👆👆🙏🙏
Looks like I'm sticking with my flight sims...the cost is insane. Sucks that is such a huge barrier to entry for those of us that want to fly.

Good morning I have q ustion on pilot
Hey im a freshman in highschool do you have any tips on classes to take?
Do I have to go to a college to get a degree in aviation before all of this?
Hey just to say about to graduate high school so I am planning to get degree on aeronautical engineering and then go to be a pilot for airlines Is it ok?
Hi my dream is to be an airline pilot but I have this one problem that is, one of my legs is short and the other one is long.The question is will i be able to pursue my career.
Ooh sorry 😢😢😢
Is there memorising invoved
im a pilot and i wanted to see if he were to be correct
Was he ? And do you mind if i ask you for the total costs ?
Do you have to go to university before ?
My dream will come true one day❤❤❤
hello i need some advice...my son planning to be a pilot...while he is confused about Flying school , flying degree or a university ( bachelor of pilot technology)
Moreover needto know the required flying hours to be certificatified and what are the required license ....do appreciate your time and effort ...thank you
No need for a university degree or something. Going for a flight school is enough. The most difficult parts are the price which is at least $75000 and the minimum of 500 hours of flying to be able to land a job
Do u need a type of degree to start
Well, my journey starts here.
Very informative video. I had no idea it's so expensive and takes so much time. Better start your training early in your youth and have a rich daddy. Or join the military.
Very detailed
I'm 40 years old... is it too late? will an airline even consider me being old and with few hours?
Does my gi bill cover this
Hi guys I want to become a pilot, but I have a concern regarding obtaining a Class 1 Medical certificate. I have mild color deficiency and have previously failed the Ishihara test. However, I heard that even if I fail it, it doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s over. Instead, I can take alternative color vision tests, such as the Farnsworth Lantern test or the D-15 test. I would really appreciate it if someone could confirm whether this is true, as I don’t want to hold on to false hope. Thank you!
Do your private hours exclude from the CTP hours
Is this program it is also for Canada ?
What about an online ground school??? We just skipping that???
What if I don't how anything about aviation
Would the GI bill covered this?
Yes
That’s exactly what I plan to do with mine
Why wouldn't you get your multi engine rating before you get your commercial so you can count those hours toward your 250 total hours needed for the commercial?
Very few finish CPL within the minimums so it doesn't really matter all that much.
wym 250 hrs? don't airlines require at last 1500hrs? what airline only wants 250?
@@LucianMarcin-em6lu250 hours for commercial rating. Airlines require the ATP certificate and a minimum of 1,500 hours.
It will take how many years ?
Where is y'all guys school?
I thought I have to take the FAA ground test before taking my first flight lessons and not after?
Only before the final checkride. Better to have some experience in the air while doing ground school. Things make more sense.
one question is it still okay to apply for piloting exam from a different country instead of my country?
if it's possible im looking forward to taking the piloting exam test
#luv for aviation❤❤❤
I’m seeing people talking about the cost as an obstacle! Trust me, if it’s really your dream you’ll find a way; if not that’s not for you!!! Money can’t be the reason why we can’t afford to turn our dreams into reality! Come on guys!!!
How can we achieve our dreams when we don't have money? It's better to be a little realistic.
@@behrouzfarahani9637 I totally understand your point of view, but if you live in the United States, then you still got options like financing with loan that you’ll pay back or joining the Air Force Academy
@@MorvanGandaho Ok
Im 24 and I first obtain my cdl to pay off my credit card debt I’m 24 if I use a year to pay everything off and so on by the time I’m 30 I should be done with everything is that an old age or is it to late ?
It’s never too late. I’m 35 with a CDL and I take my discovery flight this Saturday! Go for it, the sky is the limit!
@@HeySmiley88 how’s it going so far sir I’m ready to do this first I got to pay my debts then save what’s your approach any advice
I am 15 years old now can i become pilot of air canada at the age of 20?
I want to be a pilot
What if someone fails the private pilot certificate? Or the commercial pilot certificate would you have to pay again or take another loan again to try again ?
Hello guys I wanna become a pilot, I am currently a 15 year old and I wanna know what is the process before the flight school stuff. For example do I need a 4-year degree and can I get the degree online or will that make the airlines not fully give me credit due to online degrees? Also after that what is the process between getting your degree in a major and getting your medical certificate? Can someone help me out? Thanks!
We made a video about that:

@@PilotInstituteAirplanes thank you very much! Much appreciated and I am looking forward to become a potential pilot!
I would say best and cheapest way to do it is by going to air-force
I'm assuming I need my driver's license before I can get certified to fly a plane???
Nope, a driver's license is not required to become a pilot.
