NBC News’ Tom Costello got an exclusive look at a United Airlines training program. The program is pushing through a record 40 to 70 new hires every week.

It’s comforting to know that our lives will be in the hands of trainees that are rushed through the process.

Not flying anything has FAA certified or Boeing brand. I rather walk.
I wish I became a ✈️ pilot 💜🙏

That is nice they only mentioned the top 1% of pilots’ pay right before they are forced to retire, but if they wanted to be fair they should have mentioned the starting salary as well. It is definitely an interesting profession, but if you are doing it solely for the money, it probably won’t work out for you.
Welcome to Brandon’s America! He and his voters need to be held accountable!
With all these trainees, the sky's not friendly.
I spent nearly that much (100k) just getting my initial 3 licenses (includes living expenses for 3 years). I’m only at a single-engine commercial license now. If United wants to take me and train me up until I can fly a regional jet or higher, I will literally sign my soul over to you.
My husband sat at a regional for 13. 5 years before getting hired in into a major airline. It is crazy how in need they are now. Been talking about this shortage for years and it is finally here.
Hot news update!
Biden administration has been too timed and risk averse in its willingness to send Ukraine long range weapons – HIMARS
I have a Private Pilots license I earned in 2001. I stopped flying in 2002 due to a DWI arrest. It was plead down to a non criminal conviction. I have not flown since 2002 and am 37 years old now. Will the airlines hire me after I complete the rest of my ratings?
737 max crash 👌 🛫🛩✈💩💩💩💩🤔
Fighting 8.5% inflation (more like 35%) with a 1% Fed funds interest rate is like stopping a forest fire with a bucket of water. Folks prepare accordingly. Make investment in other not to depend on the government for funds..
Despite the economic downturn,I'm so happy☺️. I have been earning $ 60,000 returns from my $7,000 investment every 13days.
New Green Deal 😏🌏
Stopppp! These aren’t Walmart cashiers or T-mobile reps. I’m nervous!
All the highly trained, more experienced pilots are working for the global elites now.
Yes because on top of 100k in flight school I have a additional 250k in 4 year college money just laying around let me ask my daddy Elon musk or Warren buffet if they can help me out
Open direct hire captains I’ll come back to the US
It's a dam 737, claim down, it's not that difficult to fly. Every Airline is hiring now, until they star the furloughs and layoff in a few years. It is an unstable career and i encourage young people to not enter this profession.
한국은 넘쳐나서 쉬고있어유
Time to fill pilot seats with high school graduates who hold a private pilot license and are good at playing video games. Also, Cow/Calf pilots and Token pilots.
Is it necessary to have a pilot's license? Or do they teach themselves? my son is just finishing high school, but he really wants to be a pilot
Im a pilot with 800 hours.
Recjon id have a shot if i applied?
This makes me question if I should go to a 4 year college or just go to Community College and get a associates degree in an aviation related field.
