- Your Path to United Airlines: bit.ly/UALPilotApplication ... In May 2023, I was a "lineholder" for the first time as a United Airlines pilot flying the 757 & 767. In this video, I'll teach you what it means to transition from being a reserve pilot to holding a line, how trip trading impacts your schedule, and what it's like to fly 43,500 miles in one month. On an average month, I have 16-18 days off. So, to be clear, this month was a major exception as I brought myself down to 12 days off and flew 6 international 3-day trips.
To all of the future pilots watching... I'm so glad to be back with you after a year-long break from filming. My decision to pause CZcams coincided with a few major events: ALPA (our pilot union) passed an important new pilot contract, and I moved to San Francisco, where I'm flying domestically on 757 across the country and to Hawaii. I hope you enjoy this video, filmed in May 2023, and can't wait to hear how else I can support your journey to the flight deck!

Excited to be back with all of you making videos after a little over a year! So, what should I film next?
Why did you stop making videos for so long? You’re my favorite aviation CZcamsr and inspired me to try to become a pilot.
@@user-vg2mk2gy4hI touch on that in the video + a little note is in the video description :)
So excited to hear you are coming back. Since you've been gone, I've started my aviation journey. I am endlessly thankful for your motivational videos and look forward to your return.
@@SwayneMartinPilot thanks
Wooh! I fly exclusively united for work, and every time I’m on a 757 or 767 I’m always looking for you in the cockpit.
I fly DEN IAD a lot. You ever on that route?
My favorite CZcamsr is back!
You two need a vlog ❤
You both my favorite ❤️
Amen! Miss you two together in videos.
4th!
My two favorite CZcamsrs
When I saw this on my for you page, it brought me to tears that you came back. We missed you so much.
Frr😢
Brought you to tears? Lol. WTF
75’s…the most underrated plane in the sky.
Gonna be a sad day when they're gone.
Passengers don’t like the 757, because it is a tight long tube on rather long trips with tiny windows and noisy cabin.😡😡😡
With a bit over 1000 deliveries it got its fair share of market. Still is widely used by Delta in America and by United for transatlantic routes. Can be modifies for cargo, serving for FedEx and UPS until there are literally no more spare parts being manufactures. Plane spotters love. Given that the aircraft is a bit niche, I wouldn’t say it is underrated. A321ceo has more sells, but it is noticeably cheaper to operate.
@@interstellaraviator6437welcome to the convo Captain Obvious. We could explain it to you, but no one brought their crayons.
@@MCMXI1, I mean, I really don’t get why people keep calling B757 underrated.
This was my goal and dream growing up. However, times were different then. Much more competitive back in the 80s. No pilot shortage and the industry was smaller than today and was peppered with ex military pilots. I am fortunate to have been able to own a Cessna 172 and a Piper Comanche with a couple of great partners. At 63, now I only live vicariously through videos like this. Good job Swayne.
You could always fly part 91, 124, or 135 jet operations!
@@VictoryAviationwhat's pt 124 ? never heard that
Great to see you back, Swayne! Excited to see what the future holds for you🙂
Just completed my Flight Operation Internship at United! Hoping to return one day and join you all!

The 75 is truly the greatest of all time
So happy to see you back. I just recently flew again from Hartford, Ct to Dallas Fort Worth. I am not a fan of flying, but watching your videos gives me comfort. Seeing what goes in to flying and the care the Staff takes, really gave me piece. Thank you for sharing, and Welcome Back. You should do a Colab with Sam comparing side by side a Commercial Plane and one Decked out for the Military.
Glad to see you back swayne I have missed you.Pretty busy schedule lately,I hope you enjoy some much needed days off😊😊😊
So crazy that I was just rewatching your videos yesterday wondering when you'd come back... Welcome back !!
That was awesome and appreciated. Parents must be proud! Keep going young man and again thanks for sharing your journey.
Congratulations!!! I have been following your journey and it fills me with joy to see you advance. Since your last video, I have become a SFO based United 1K after years of flying with the airline with the papercutter logo. Hoping our paths cross one day and I will get your fly on a plane with you behind the yoke.
Glad you are back! I am 65 and I will never be a pilot but I enjoy your videos! Wish you the best.
Welcome back swayne been waiting excellent vid thank you.
Anything and everything. Thanks for the content.
So happy to see you back
Welcome back! Your videos are helping recruit the next generation of skilled pilots while showing the rewards of all the hard work you have put in. Please continue to share your adventures when you have time.
Thanks, About time LOL Glad to see your videos.
Awesome to see an upload
Welcome back Swayne. Been bing watching your older videos in the meantime. Your videos left me wondering when I can back in the air as I have been “grounded” due to more work responsibilities and not having the energy to do what I love to do.
I believe I have been following your videos from the beginning. I am so proud and impressed with you. Keep posting when you can. You're a joy to watch.
Happy subscriber 😊!
Thank you for a new video. So glad to see you back.
Thanks for coming back to CZcams. You have inspired me alot and im currently planning to fulfill my childhood dream of being a pilot. By God's grace, i should be coming over to the USA to start pilot training before this year runs out. I'm in talks with some flight schools already. I hope one day we can both share the same cockpit as flying for united is my ultimate goal.
With much love from Lagos, Nigeria 🇳🇬
Hi Mr. Martin! Good to see another well-produced video from you. I started following you before you even started with that small Hawaiian airline. What a journey!
Seems you've made some great career choices to get where you are. To me, working out that schedule is more complex than any jet could be!
Can't wait to see how your path goes from here!
It is really good to have you back. Glad you took some time for yourself which we all need to do at some point. Your videos are very motivational and encouraging, especially for me who always wanted to be an airline pilot but chose law enforcement to get the money for flight school first. Now being a pilot is going to be my career 2.0. All of your videos has helped to keep the passion alive. So please continue making videos when you can. Best of wishes as you continue to excel in your aviation career.
Welcome back!!
Good to see you back …we missed you
Welcome back! Glad you are okay and happy flying!
Best of luck! Ways to go 👏
