A lot of people don't know how bad the security situation is in this country, I listened to someone who was kidnapped by fulani herdsmen on YouTube and I was dumbfounded.

Keep supporting useless leaders because they are from your tribe and a party you like. When them go kidnap you, you will realize tinubu no Sabi you, akpabio and wike no Sabi you.

TravelRe: Any Pilot Here ? by prettytasha(op): 3:04pm On Jan 19, 2025
SoftSport:
Building flight hours after obtaining a Commercial Pilot License (CPL) can be challenging, but there are several pathways aspiring pilots use to reach the required 1,500 hours for airline jobs. Here are some common methods:

1. Flight Instructor
Many new CPL holders become flight instructors. This is one of the most common ways to build flight hours.

As a Certified Flight Instructor (CFI), you train student pilots, which helps you log significant hours while also earning money.

Additional certifications, such as CFII (Certified Flight Instructor – Instrument) or MEI (Multi-Engine Instructor), can allow you to teach advanced skills and build even more hours.

2. Banner Towing
Pilots can work for companies that tow banners for advertising.

This is a seasonal job but can help you log hours, especially during busy times like summer or events.

3. Aerial Survey/Photography
Some companies hire pilots to fly low and slow for aerial surveying, mapping, or photography.

This job often involves repetitive flying but is a good way to log hours consistently.

4. Skydiving Operations
Pilots can work for skydiving operations, flying planes to altitude for jumpers.

This is a great way to build hours, especially on weekends when skydiving activity is high.

5. Charter or Part 135 Operations
Charter companies or Part 135 operators often hire low-hour pilots to fly smaller aircraft.

This is a stepping stone toward airlines, allowing you to gain valuable experience in real-world operations.

6. Pipeline or Powerline Patrol
Companies hire pilots to patrol pipelines, powerlines, or other infrastructure.

These jobs often require flying at low altitudes and can help you accumulate hours consistently.

7. Ferry Pilot
Ferrying aircraft from one location to another (domestically or internationally) is another option.

This job allows you to fly various aircraft types and gain diverse experience.

8. Cargo Operations
Some small cargo operators hire low-hour pilots to fly single-engine or twin-engine aircraft.

These jobs often involve night flying and less glamorous schedules but are excellent for building hours.

9. Volunteer Flying
Organizations like Angel Flight or other humanitarian groups allow you to volunteer your time and aircraft to help transport patients or supplies.
While you may not earn money, you gain flight hours and experience.

10. Glider Towing
Some glider clubs hire pilots to tow gliders into the air.
This job may not pay much but helps you log hours quickly.

11. Networking and Small Operators
Networking with smaller aviation businesses can open up opportunities for low-hour pilots.

Some companies are willing to hire new pilots for specific jobs if they show dedication and competence.

12. Military or Paramilitary Flying
Joining the military or paramilitary organizations that require pilots can provide extensive flying opportunities, often with advanced training.

Key Advice:
Be Flexible: You may have to relocate or work odd hours to get flight time.

Stay Current: Keep all certifications and medicals up to date.

Build Relationships: Networking in the aviation community can open doors to unexpected opportunities.

Keep Costs Low: Some jobs may not pay well initially, so plan your finances carefully.

If you're persistent and proactive, you'll accumulate the hours you need for an airline job.
thanks for your input. I will get multi engine rating and instrument rating after my CPL. And I'll have a look at the flight instructor course and other options

TravelAny Pilot Here ? by prettytasha(op): 12:51pm On Jan 19, 2025
Hello I would like any pilot in the house to let me know how they were able to build their flight hours after getting their CPL.

Most airlines require a minimum of 1500 flying hours to employ you and from my calculations from PPL to CPL plus instrument ratings in flight school can get you roughly around 500 to 700 hours.

So how do aspiring commercial pilots build the rest flying hours ?
