I called this episode 13 when in fact it was episode 12. Just making sure you’re paying attention.. Yup, that’s it. Oops.
In this episode I discuss the assumption that becoming a pilot in 2026 is worth it. If you are just starting your career in 2026, you face the very real probablity that you will never make Captain pay at a legacy airline. You could be facing 20 years to upgrading to Captain. If that reality is an issue, then maybe you shouldn’t pursue the airline career.
