- If you watched my last video, I talked about five reasons why I love flying private jets and what is great about business aviation. Here I do the opposite. I highlight five things that suck about business aviation and give some insight into some struggles we face in the industry. This is meant to help anyone interested in being a pilot by being transparent about the ups and downs of flying business jets around the world. Thank you for watching. Your support, feedback and comments drive me to do more. Soar to your full potential.

This is absolutely accurate. I’m a corporate pilot, and can’t even count how many times I’ve tried to make plans and had to cancel due to a flight popping up. Last thanksgiving, I was eating with my family when the phone rang, and I had get my uniform on, then go out the door. On the flip side, when you go somewhere nice, it’s like a paid vacation. It can be very rewarding, but there are sacrifices that go along with it.
Make the most out of your travels. Don’t sit in your hotel and go see some scenery in the places you are at!!!
I’m a Flight Engineer in the Navy, you should see the list of stuff I’m responsible for. I not only fly but I coordinate maintenance, perform maintenance (not just the small stuff, I’m talking engine changes and trouble shooting just like an A&P) fueling, inspections, preflight, post flight, cleaning, maintenance logs, and not to mention training. I feel your pain brother. Keep it up.
bro I love your channel , u a real one 👍🏾
Hmm. I've been flying for Netjets for 28 years. No problem here.
How much u make 😂
Thank you for your comment. Do private jet pilots typically get hotel accommodations paid for on every trip?
@@seanlaffey3633 monthly not any trip
@@Timetraveler99 which means ?
your right mate there the best no problems at all. who is that guy anyways
Hope your getting paid well dealing with a schedule like that but if it’s your first gig just enjoy it.
*personally, I don’t mind being in charge of more things or cleaning/helping with bags etc bc I like to be more involved with the plane I’m flying. Thanks for sharing, your videos are really informative and interesting as I go throughout my training!*
Hi, Ryan. Thank you for sharing these details of private jet career. In my opinion, you are on the right track to gain flying hours, on the right track to pay off loan little by little, on the right track to devote your self in the dream that you used to have. Me, I am still working on my CPL only here in northern CA. So, give the audience more info about pilot jobs, please. Fly safe, and fly happily as you can.
oooh,!!! 😳. i didn't expect that..! i know the schedules not stable. but not like that in privet jets!!!
thank you for these informations about privet jets. i actually consider to take this journey or job.
Hey nice video I bought a 182 Cessna I got my 135 I do tours here in Miami and I fly around the beautiful Waters of Miami and thank God I go home everyday
Hey man you are living my dream life. What was your route of obtaining your CPL and also how long did it take you? How much did everything in total cost you? Lastly, did you start your own tour business or hired from by an employer? Thank you!
Great video!
You are correct on all counts. Good job
Ryan, great videos thanks for taking time to create them. Which zero to hero flight school (ATP, etc) would you recommend or are they all the same? We live in Hawaii so can move anywhere on the mainland for the school if you can also suggest a geographic locale (was thinking Atlanta). Money is saved up so quality/safety more important than the cheapest per se. Mahalo!

@@skood7081 could you clearify?
@@FEETLE went there, don’t that. The instruction you get and the planes are great. Everything else is absolutely a flaming pile of garbage. You’re treated like trash, CFI’s are as well. Your problems and unexpected life events don’t matter to them. You’re a walking $100k to them and that’s it.
Looking for advice.
I have my CFII & MEI with 300 dual given. 1400 tt and part 135 freight experience. Should I go the the regionals or in a different direction? I’m 53 yrs old. Looking for a good quality of life and a good paycheck. Thanks
You’ve got all the options in the world. It just depends what kind of life you want to live. Kids or a spouse could be a factor I imagine if that’s your case.
Airlines got the big pay check too, but there something special about private. I fly part 91 in a Lear 60 and it’s a great gig although it does get lonely when ur on those 10 day trips. One thing I would like to add in the part 91 world if the owner does bad one year typically the first thing to go is the Jet and therefore our job.
I used to work for an Aircraft Maintenance Facility in the DFW area. We had a Contract with Netjets to provide service and maintenance on their aircraft that flew into and out of the DFW area.
Working for and on Netjets aircraft was not a problem for us. Like all Aircraft Operators, Netjets wanted their planes flying as often as possible and as inexpensive as possible. No problem there, as long as safety of flight remains the priority.
After working in the Corporate Aircraft Industry since 1980, I have to admit that Netjets Pilots we're the most unhappy Pilots concerning their Employer.
I'll leave it at that.
I've visited Egypt 3 times, loved the pyramids as well.
You must have moved them a lot to go 3 times. What did you do different each time you went ?
Whats the difference between private, charter and corporate? Does one tend to go to better travel destinations, I'm guessing the crew for private is very small, so im guessing you are more likely to be alone
also I'm 46 single no kids, do you think my age will have a big impact on being hired, and what about neck tattooes is it frown upon in the aviation community
Very insightful vid. What the name of this music?
straight up
Haha, so many people will see the shiny jet and the paycheck and think it's worth it to have your life be owned by either sales (part 135) or an owner (part 91). I would cut my salary in half just for a schedule, and another 20K for a cockpit door
I’m a truck driver sounds better than this
I would have thought you would be home more with corporate than an airline pilot. Maybe with shorter trips, lots of on call sitting at home etc. vs a four day airline trip with just two or three days at home etc. So not true?
What kind of jet are you flying?
I am not a pilot but I think he is very right cos I remember watching an interview of floyd Mayweather and he told the host he can call his pilot right there and they will fly to anyplace he choses and he actually did it so I think the timing is very inconvenient for the pilots but I guess the money is worth it cos I heard they are paid even when they ain't flying.
Corporate can be much better than 135. My wife has an open invitation to go whenever there’s room

As a limo chauffeur, this all sounds VERY familiar.
ATP is a joke. They went up on the price on their fast track program. One thing I respect about the program is that they now evaluate your skill to determine if you’ll be a good fit.
There is no charter company that gives you a set schedule. It seems like you are completely alienated from the passengers because they’re rich and think they’re better than you. Sometimes you have to perform flight attendant duties and help them with their luggage. I found only 10% of the wealthy will actually speak to you.
You just wait one day you will have to divert and you’ll see what the company will say after the customers complain.
Good luck to you and fly safe.
I’d actually say 90% of charter customers are quite nice and respectful. It’s usually the wannabe rich that only charter on special occasions that can be snobby. Ya I think ATP is a bad choice now days too. Thank you. Appreciate your comments and feedback.
Ryan Huber I’ve only worked for netjets but I talked to people at other charters and they have a completely different perspective.
You really think that out of everyone that flies on 91 or 135 jets, only 10% will even bother interacting with you? I find that very difficult to believe. Obviously I could be very wrong since I haven’t been in those ops yet. But I’ll be finding out soon enough.
@@VictoryAviation actually as of today with updated info, it’s not that bad. You have to have experience with various ops to get a better picture of what’s going on. I think my expectations have changed over the years so it’s not what it seemed.
@@alessio272 That’s great to hear. I’m typically very outgoing and enjoy interacting with people. I’m also great at hospitality. So I was really hoping that there weren’t that many rude passengers.
I’ve been offered a job to fly SIC in a Sovereign for a part 91 operation. I’m super excited about it. I’m actually at the airport right now between multi engine lessons. My check ride is scheduled for Saturday. As soon as I get that knocked out, I can start.
Is it really safe?, I hate flying private it scares me way more? I have to take a flight but I’m very scared
There's nothing to be scared about, if anything, you should actually be much more scared to drive TO the airport than fly in a plane. Statistically, it is 19 times more safe to fly than drive. Therefore you should not be scared at all when flying because you're 19 times MORE likely to die in your car
So much money involved, so hard to get those rating ,to what pilots earn,,its a job just like bus driver or a taxy with wings and high reponsabiities,,and schedule really sucks
Go for FedEx or UPS
interesting !!!
I love this chAnnel
Love it babe! Zulu and I miss you!
Shea Jones miss you babe
Y’all cute lol thanks for the tips man!
you don't feel any remote shame objectifying yourself and your body for youtube views. Don't u think you're worth more than that? I guess not.
Long duty days running late into the night, like 4 am late. Or a better one is when you fly early morning and then get your BS 10 hour rest and then fly all dam night. Yeah
When you got hired at your company now you didnt have to pay for the training for that aircraft did you? Or does the company? And how long on the gulfstreams for private flying?
Company paid for training. You should never have to pay for your own training anywhere unless you’re a contractor.
Student debt is a USA only thing just in case some of you guys are wondering.
*depending on the size of the charter company
This Video Could have been more educational, than personal gripe. Both Flying Commercial or Corporate Airlines have their Own advantages and disadvantages. Nothing is assured or guaranteed especially during this Pandemic. A person is lucky just to have a job. One must be Thankful for the opportunities.
U missing something else dude bags...😂😂😂sometimes we also have to help with that...I don’t have to clean tho but have to help with bags multiple times ...😒😒 plus all the others stuff u said😒
love private jets
So when you fly private jets you can’t take your girlfriend with you ?
I really like your videos and thanks for sharing with us all kinds of information what to know about being a pilot 👍
Nope totally illegal. Don't ever take sand to beach 🤣🤣🤣
if youre staying at that specific location for awhile, captains usually fly their gf's or wives out themselves, other halfs are not allowed on private jets unless personal owners allow it.
@4:55, as to cleaning, the private pilot also has the privilege of emptying the toilet (chemical and flushing type), cleaning the toilet, mop the bathroom floor, wipe down the entire bathroom. It’s a “honey do” at home, whereas it’s a “gotta do” as a private pilot.
easy i dont have friends
How is linked in going ..boy wonder hacking my space deleted face book account..
Dont use office ..at all..
sounds like you fly for the wrong company. i retired after 25 years with a major corporate flight department . the FBO cleaned the aircraft,we had 4 pilots per a/c, plenty of time off, schedule was known 2 months in advance, pay was as good as senior airline captains. as for security,not many CEO`s will get rid of their jet and stand in lines at an airline terminal wondering if the flight will be cancelled. Dont give up on corporate aviation
hey! just wondering, what's the name of the company? If its not a problem with you to share that info :)
#pilotpeopleproblems
Well, its your choice? End of….
i dont think i will ever be hired by an airline, so private/charter is my only option.. its next to impossible to get on with the airlines unless you were a total loser your whole life, in which case props to you. the rest of us dont have options..
In this day and age not true. Obviously if you are coming up on 65 yrs old than yes. Otherwise, the world is your oyster at the moment with the pilot shortage.
@@floridalife-livinginflorid6882 im a felon.. infact they deferred myedical because i marked yes on that stupid question, now i have to wait for the faa to give me permission to even get a ppl.
@@Dewey_Boondye420 seems like you're the only loser that had to commit a felony and get caught to have fun. There are many ways to have fun, even mischievous fun but you're obviously just not smart about it. Tough luck I guess
#6 thing that sucks about being a private jet pilot- wasting time filming YT videos while at the pyramids in Egypt.
Cleaning? F that! 😂😂
Using medical transportation as a level for your schedule is hilarious and skewed

However the airlines are not stable anymore because of the pandemic, and private aviation is right now
Fair enough
Folks , this is a KID giving advice after one gig.....
So during all the training for a G650 ..... you never were told of what that jet is designed for.... Long haul?...
During all your training at the center... you never heard about crappy Corp pilot jobs.? Yet you took one and now are crying about it. Welcome to the world of aviation son. You were done a pretty good disservice if you weren’t warned about this job hanging out in EGYPT???

If you object to the downside of being a private jet pilot (and, presumably the salary) why don't you work somewhere else- Walmart perhaps?
you have to be a much better pilot to fly private.
Seriously? Try flying 767 middle of the night freight on day 15 shooting Cat 3 approaches back to back from San Francisco to Seattle
@@alexbrutlag8038 oh yeah.....i hear that autoland is a huge workload....lol
tom dick Tell me chuck yeager, what makes a private jet pilot sooo much better
@@alexbrutlag8038 it takes more skill, a private jet flies into places like aspen then dogzballs Arkansas, small airports with no atc, ect. Airline pilots walk on the plane and turn left....then fly an ILS to a 10,000ft runway. easy
@@tomdick693 Besides 121 is much higher standards and training?
The tone and tint struck me as a guy complaining over nothing. Nothing you pointed out qualifies as suckage with the possible exception of the sunk costs of getting ratings. But then again, that would be an issue for many professionals, but without the perks you enjoy. I don't know, maybe I'm too harsh, but listening to you complain over what I would consider minor issues was annoying. I was thinking of my days in the Army where I took a MUCH greater risk, under MUCH more adverse circumstances, with MUCH less pay, but without complaining because I loved what I was doing and because I recognized the importance of it. Too bad flying a transplant organ to save someone's life was inconvenient for you.
Julian Cate You are taking this the completely wrong way. No one is complaining. There is a video of things he likes, and this video describes things he dislikes about the job. This helps people when making a choice to fly private or commercial. No need to get offended over absolutely nothing.... 😂
@@sheajoness when somebody lists off things that suck, how could it not be perceived as complaining? It sounds to me like there is a lack of Lifestyle anticipation. Set your expectations accordingly and if things turn out better, great. If they don't.. You're free to quit.
you didn't have to watch the video lol, thanks for the engagement
Dean M It all depends on how you look at things. I do not view this as a complaining, negative rant by any means. There is a fine line. He has a positive attitude and is helping others by stating what some of downsides are. There are downsides to every job. He never stated he hates his job. He loves it, so absolutely no need to quit. I don’t think you quite understand the concept of CZcams yet.
@@deanm9816 dude... "suck" is literally just a keyword to amplify the point of the video to reel in traffic. It's clickbait, exactly why you watched the video... the purpose of the video is to help aspiring pilots make a decision of whether or not they want to fly for the airlines or fly private. It's also a follow up to my last video saying the 5 things I love about it and a test to see if the negative video got more views in which it did. Testing human marketing responses.
Waaa waaa. Your a pilot, don't like ur job get another one." Spoiled " You know what sucks? Working outside in 100°, cleaning tables, going to 2 jobs because ur a good parent.
Lets stop all private plane travel in and out of the U.S.
For god sakes stop complaining and whining and quit your damn job go do something else go change tires on cars and work for a living
