- If you are someone who aspires to be a pilot, or is a pilot, this is your channel! My name is Luke and I created this channel to document my journey to becoming an airline pilot and help others who are interested in a career in aviation. I'm currently attending ATP flight school and will give my honest opinion and share my experience so you can decide for yourself whether it's worth it!

👋 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 a finance related internship, I decided to look into becoming a pilot. After a couple flights I was hooked and decided that making money while flying jets doesn't sound too bad!

amazing vid nice to finally get an insight from someone!
Glad it was helpful! Let me know if you have any other questions
Super awesome! Thank you!
Glad you like it!
Love it! Excited to hear about the whole program!
Thanks for watching!
Wishing you all the best… I just started in Tampa last week and it’s pretty overwhelming, but I have hope that I’ll make it work one day at a time.… So far most of the people are pretty cool as long as I have a question they are willing to answer
Thanks man! First week or two are super overwhelming but calms down a lot after. Keep me posted with how it goes!
Really inspiring stuff. I'm looking to start at ATP soon so i really appreciate the content you're putting out. I wish we could have a more in depth conversation so i can pick your brain and get more information. Otherwise really cool stuff man and all the best.
Of course man. I remember trying to learn more about ATP started and there weren't a whole ton of videos on UA-cam so that's why I wanted to make these videos. Let me know if you have any specific questions that I can make videos about!
I'm curious about a lot😂
1. The CFI job you get to build hours. Is it paid? What's the quality of life on that?
2. How long is the actual program? I know they say 9months or so but is that really it?
3. What's the student life like?
4. I need more information about the written exam I need to get out of the way.
I'll ask more once I have some more
@@osteenmaina4142how is he supposed to know about the CFI part of the job and quality if he literally just started?
@@derrick2251 I just assumed his location has students in different levels that he could ask😅
My bad😂
@@osteenmaina4142 it’s ok that was rude of me.
Thanks for this video if you could do every 2 weeks like this it’d be perfect. Video was perfect
That's the plan! Should come out with weeks 3-4 this week. Thanks for watching my videos
@@FlyWithLukeD bettttt! & no problem 👍🏾
im subscribing now, please keep us updated on ATP
Will do! Thanks for subscribing!
I’ve heard bad things about ATP, especially the one here where I live. Whenever they fly over to my airport they tend to do whatever they want since it’s non towered and not do what you’re taught to do when training. Many time when there has been 5 or 6 planes in the pattern they would set up for a 10 mile final in a slow piper and screw everything up, don’t make the correct radio calls and don’t read the AFD before heading to the airport. It clearly states in the afd winds 5kts and under use 18 and even if 6 people are in the pattern for 18 they will use the runway the wind is pointing down since they didn’t read the chart. I learned in my own plan with a part 61 instructor and my friend got his PPL with ATP and his knowledge is nowhere near what a private pilot should be. Not being rude but they don’t teach you what you need to know. It’s also so much cheaper to do a part 61 school.
Yeah that is super annoying. What location is that? We definitely run things a little here at least with my experience. ATP is actually a part 61 school but there are 100% cheaper options out there.
@@ShaneAffsa Lol what? All flight schools operate under part 91 but the structure itself can either be part 61 or 141
what camera do you use ?
amzn.to/3WrliIZ
how did you pass the faa written exam..?
Use sportys study buddy to study and then you can go to a PSI testing center and take it!
Is there a dress code requirement? Also Like no facial hair or visible tattoos as well ?
@@TheMoeeShow here's all the info! atpflightschool.com/faqs/uniform_policy.html?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAD_vunoD3MPYPgsE5ECMogFEr9GwP&gclid=Cj0KCQjw1qO0BhDwARIsANfnkv9st9MjtBjZzjNFrvtZ_ImvqXcrDEvhus71YSLm0f6rpNS8bwdCPLgaAiKWEALw_wcB
@@FlyWithLukeD thanks i appreciate it
When did you take your knowledge test?
I was actually able to get the knowledge tests done in Jan-Feb before I started. They last for two years though
What ATP location are you at ?
KOGD
@@FlyWithLukeD thanks !
good video, but are your eyes ok?
Thanks for asking haha. My eyes have always been a little more red than normal and I filmed this right after I woke up!
Cool premise for a youtube channel. I would suggest though, learn how to tell a story better/more in depth. You kinda have this nonchalant "grumpy teenager working at the mall" type vibe. Grow your audience by being more friendly and open. Just my two cents. I wish your flight school experience and youtube channel well!
Thanks for the advice! I definitely can see that. Probably shouldn't film a video right after I wake up 😂
bro I'm considering going to mesa campus in july!
Let me know what you decide or if you have questions! Do you already live there?
Run. Run away fast.
lol did you go to ATP?
@@FlyWithLukeD I knew what I was getting into and it was worse than their reputation. Pay twice as much for half the instruction.
I'm goin to live in their apetments
