I want to become an Air Force Fighter pilot sometime in the near future, and I was wondering what the best method would be to do so? I don’t want to fix planes, I would only want to fly them. I know it is very difficult to get in, but I just was wondering.

I am going to start a 4 year Geography and Aviation program after graduating from high school. This program will give me my Commercial Pilot license, Instrument rating and Multi-Engine rating by the time I finish it.

Does anyone know how long it will take to build up over 1500 hours and get my Airline Transport Pilot license (ATP) after I have the Commercial Pilot license? Also, I would appreciate it if anyone can give me tips on how the ATP and hours can be aquired the fastest or easiest way.

P.S. My goal is to become a Airline Pilot.
Also, how often do you have to get a Category 1 Medical exam while in your 20’s with a Commercial Pilot license?

Lastly, if I land a job with a small company in the beginning, can i just get my ATP through them for free? Do some companies offer this?

venture asked:


I started to take flying lessons a few years ago, but I never recieved my Private Pilot License. I did, however, put in some solo time, and I logged about fifty hours total time. For me money became a problem. At the moment, I am considering taking lessons again. If I perform well, I might work for the Commercial License and the necessary ratings and then head North. Does age work against pilots? Right now I am in my mid-thirties.
