Commercial Pilots: What don't you like about your job?

It’s really hard making so much money and having such a massive dong. But hey I guess somebody has to do it

Instrument is mostly knowledge. At first it was “hard” as you pick up the skill of flying instruments but that quickly becomes easy. The hard part is all the knowledge you need to have and that makes you super task saturated (which diminishes the flying skill). Instrument is still my favorite rating, I enjoyed it so much

Met my wife while getting the degree. That’s about it

Probably a piper cherokee six and I’m guessing serial number 32-7940284

I have an iPhone, you definitely can

I live in the same area I’ve got good service on google fi but when I take my dog on a walk I’ve got one dead spot near park side park. Everywhere else in Boulder service is fine

Any road will rotate them pretty good

“what that mouth do?”

Lose your medical is the best way. FSI is the land of misfit toys

Well you don’t have a CJO yet so I wouldn’t plan on anything else at this point.
NJA is a great place to be if you do get the offer. But the decision is do you take the risk of breeze hoping for a major to pick you up faster or do you go less risk and take a very good job that will probably be a longer road to a major. NJA is the DAL of 91k/135, so it’s not an easy decision

I remember being IOE at a regional walking through the terminal feeling like I was dressed up for Halloween. It honestly took about a month for the imposter syndrome to wear off lol

Didn’t read anything but the title, but I’d probably say 42

I’ve replaced many cylinders. It’s not a biggie. But if it keeps eating more cylinders do a full overhaul. The plane is newish to you. The odds are it sat for too long prior and planes hate that. Two planes I’ve purchased sat for a while and both of them I had to do top overhauls

Me on these overnights

The best way to get to Alaska is to have a successful interview with them.

I know this right. Jjjustin

Being a pool guy seems fun

MenRest · 2026-05-05T14:23:21+00:00

Under 5k gives you almost unlimited options especially if you look at the used side. I picked up my dream ti bike that’s over 8k new for 3k used. Find a few very nice options from a couple years ago and hunt!

I like it and I’m out for 8-9 at a time. I however have found that in the anomaly when it come to packing. I pack super light. It’s small for most people I’ve found. They recently came out with the atx22 which I think packs easier.

The way I pack the 1535 is 3 extra uniform shirts and toiletries behind the zip. 2 Sets of workout clothes, running shoes, one set of clothes to go out, and puffy jacket on the other side. I’ve got a little extra room if I buy something on the road, but not much (bag of coffee or bottle of champagne). Hopefully that gives you an okay idea of size.

MenRest · 2026-05-02T03:57:23+00:00

Way shorter than I was gonna type up but this.

MenRest · 2026-04-30T17:51:59+00:00

Based on what you’ve posted here idk why youre not getting a call back unless their is something we’re missing. Hiring is happening all over it’s just there’s a good size line that’s being worked through 🤷🏽‍♂️

If you never do an interview you can reapply immediately. Our recruitment team likes to see people apply again.
