Airline Pilot Careers
Begin Your Dream Career as a Professional Pilot
The demand for commercial pilots is skyrocketing, and now is the perfect time to start your journey. At Rexair, we train aspiring pilots from across the country, equipping them with the skills needed for a rewarding and lucrative career. Whether your goal is to command an Airbus or a Boeing, we’ll help you get there. Our fleet of new-generation aircraft features state-of-the-art avionics, putting you in the cockpit of the best training planes available.
Becoming an Airline Pilot
Pilot training is a multi-step process. Each stage is marked by a new certificate or rating that grants you more privileges as you gain experience. The progression of these stages include:
- Private Pilot Certificate
- Instrument Rating
- Commercial Pilot Certificate
- Multi-Engine Rating
- Flight Instructor Certificate
- Airline Transport Pilot Certificate
We offer both Part 61 and Part 141 training programs. Our team will help you choose the right path, whether you prefer the highly structured Part 141 program or a more flexible Part 61 option.
Once you have your commercial certificate and at least 250 flight hours, you can start getting paid to fly, usually by working as a flight instructor. You’ll then work toward the 1,000 to 1,500 flight hours needed to qualify for a position as a First Officer at a major airline.
Beyond the Cockpit: The Pilot Lifestyle
Life as an airline pilot offers a number of benefits and advantages. Let’s take a closer look at some of the pros of being an airline pilot:
- High Salary and Benefits: One of the most appealing aspects of the airline pilot lifestyle is the high salary and benefits package that comes with the job. Pilots typically receive health insurance, retirement plans, and paid time off.
- Travel Opportunities: Another major advantage is the opportunity to travel to new destinations. You’ll get to see the world and experience different cultures. Some airlines even offer free or discounted travel for you and your family. This is a great way to save money on vacations.
- Job Security and Stability: In general, the airline industry is a stable and secure field. Despite occasional fluctuations in the economy, people will always need to travel, and airlines will always need pilots to fly their planes. This means that the job outlook for airline pilots is generally positive, and there is a good level of job security in the industry.
- Personal Growth and Development: Becoming an airline pilot requires significant training and education, which leads to great personal growth. Pilots must be highly disciplined, responsible, and detail oriented. These valuable skills can be applied to every area of your life. Additionally, the experience of flying a plane is incredibly fulfilling, contributing to a deep sense of personal accomplishment.
