  • Your Path to United Airlines: bit.ly/UALPilotApplication ... It's no secret that learning to fly takes immense time, resources, and motivation. I've made it my mission to dive behind the scenes and show what it takes to become an airline pilot. You've seen my career unfold step by step over the past few years, and I hope it's helped kickstart a dream career for many of you! Believe it or not, this is just the beginning...
    To accomplish the next step of my mission, I'm excited to announce that I'm joining United Airlines, an airline that shares my passion for supporting aspiring pilots from the very beginning of their careers. I'm starting my United career flying the Boeing 757 and 767; it's a legendary fleet that I've always wanted to fly. I'm humbled to have an opportunity like this so early in my career and can't wait to take you with me. Let me know how I can help and what you want to learn as you start flight training!
    United Airlines is growing by hundreds of airplanes, and to fill all of those flight decks we're going to need a lot of pilots. The United Aviate Academy is the only flight training school run by a major carrier in the USA. It's designed to train thousands of pilots, and open the doors of aviation to people from all backgrounds. Simply put, being a pilot is for everyone. Diversifying the flight deck isn't just the right thing to do, it's the best way we can meet the world's demand for new pilots.

      Are you starting over as a first officer at United? You just earned the “left seat” and at Envoy and now it’s back to the “right seat”
      Either way it’s worth it career wise.

So happy to hear you are getting to fly 757's, that is the one commercial pax plane I would want to fly the most...the power! But this won't last forever, the 75's are getting very old and will be phased out eventually. I am left wondering if the new United gig will restrict what you are able to film and include in your videos - like cockpit footage. Keep up the great work, I am fan! I live vicariously through you.

    Today I helped out with my first helicopter ride event. I got to see so many young children that had an amazing time riding in helicopters (and some flying) for the first time. I told every single one of them that they can be a pilot one day, and that I genuinely hoped they would! Sharing aviation is the best part of aviation.

      I’m interested in becoming a pilot starting from zero time. I’ve been shopping around flight schools such as ATP, Aeroguard, etc and found out about UAA. Can you tell me how the program is so far? And what made you choose this one versus other flight schools you looked at (if you did at all)? Thanks!

      @@24BigRex The program is great! This school is unlike any other. We fly SR20s with G1000s, a really great plane to learn in. The atmosphere around here is very positive and there is lots of excitement. People from other classes hangout and study together, so that's great. I chose this school bc I was a Flight Attendant for United. It was either this or ATP, but I'm very happy to have this experience and be at UAA!

I hadnt got the chance to watch your content for a while and just came on here today and as soon as I saw the 757 thumbnail I was like "Oh hellz yea Swayne has left behind the little Embraer and is flying the rocket 757!" Congratulations and thanks for taking us along for this journey! At this rate you will be 787 Dreamliner Captain flying to Tokyo next year aha!

    I've been watching Martin's videos for five or six years, when you were just starting commercial flying and I was just starting helicopter training in the US. Seeing today that you have become a Boeing 757 pilot, and I had to leave the pilot dream in China. I am so happy for you, and I feel that time flies.我看Martin的视频已经五六年了,那时候你刚开始商业飞行,而我在美国刚开始直升机飞行训练。今天看到你已经成为波音757飞行员,而我在中国不得不离开飞行员梦想。我为你感到高兴,也感慨时间飞逝。

    Congrats Swayne. Been watching your videos since you became a private pilot. And now you’re flying with the big boys. Being an airline pilot is something I wanted to do when I was growing up. Unfortunately, parents did not want me to be one and I had to choose a different career path. Parents wanted me to work for Wall Street or some large accounting firm which I don’t have a passion for. I ended up becoming a logistics specialist for the military as a civilian employee. I do get to see Super Hornets fly around. I later became a private pilot, and may decide to attain commercial someday.
    Kudos for playing Gershwin Classics at the end; the classic United Airlines music. I remember playing that song in band class.

    Can you do a video on how you balance your day in the life of a pilot? Both on-work and off-work duty? I think this would be interesting to watch since not a lot of people are pilots and traveling across time zones can be a challenge.
    And on a side note, I am actually pursuing my career in IT aka Information Technology. However, I am rooting for you to making your dream job a reality and savoring it every moment of it every day!

    Swayne... so proud of you, Man! I've been watching you grow your aviation experiences and career since your early days on CZcams and I have to just say.. WOW! My son Jake and I own a Grumman back here in Denver. I've shared some of our experiences flying together with you and I think you've even seen a few of our CZcams videos that we've posted in the past. As a Navy vet, I learned how to fly while serving my country and when my son was in high school, he caught the bug and also learned to fly at a very young age. He was able to get his PPC, instrument, commercial and CFI ratings all in our Tiger, all while attending Metro State University of Denver, some of which was during the COVID pandemic. He graduated in 2020 and got a job flying tours back in Hawaii on the island of Kauai, where I am from. Just like you, he's been raking up those precious flight hours and just recently enrolled in the SkyWest Cadet program. His goal is to fly for SkyWest then on to the majors.
    What an inspiration! Thanks for sharing your journey with us all and I wish you the best of luck in your airline career with United! Fly safe and fly often!
