ACP409 $1,000 Per Flight Hour As An Airline Pilot? Can airline pilots make $1,000 per hour? Yes, but we need to understand the context of the question. After my last episode of “Understanding Pilot Pay https://youtu.be/n3KiUhPblKA , a conversation started about how pilots can get paid over $1,000 per hour. In this episode, I want to debunk any myths and make you understand the context of how pilots, including myself, make over $1,000 PER FLIGHT HOUR. Send us your accomplishments and a photo if you want us to share in the podcast on YouTube to [email protected] Talking Points Understanding the context of the question. Pilots on the internet will divide their annual pay by the number of hours flown. For example, a captain at a major airline making 300,000 a year who only flies 250 hours in the year makes $1,200 per flight hour. This may be misleading but is also true. Let’s discover how. Watch this video. Watch How To Make A Million A Year As An Airline Pilot - https://youtu.be/o2YBK-20AMU Understand pilots get paid a minimum even if not flying. For example Narrow body captain at a major making $320 an hour. 70 hour guarantee on reserved Flew 20 hours in the month 240 per year x $320 = $268,800 $268,800/240 hours in a year = $1,120 PER FLIGHT HOUR This example includes deadheading when in the plane in uniform. Why it is important to look at work rules and not only pay rate. How many people are claiming that they make $1,000 per hour as an airline pilot but really what they are saying is PER FLIGHT HOUR. With that said it really is a good job and you can have a wonderful lifestyle as I discussed in this video: How To Have An Amazing Quality Of Life As An Airline Pilot https://youtu.be/JoUKcc3lZDA Links: Monthly Group Coaching Mentorship https://valeri-aviation.thinkific.com/courses/group-career-coaching Questions: Questions please visit us: https://www.aviationcareerspodcast.com/contact/ Sponsor: The sponsor of this is Stratus Financial, Private Student Lending - For Pilots, By Pilots.
