I Want to Become An Airline pilot. but i cant figure out what the
requirements are. Do i need a college degree? do i have to come from
the military? how much is the pay? I am completely ignorant when it
comes to this. i cant seem to find a site.
Generally speaking you normally only need a Commercial rating, and a 2nd
class medical wtih eyes corrected to about 20/20. Before deregulation there
were so many applicants that major airlines added a college degree, 20/20
uncorrected vision, an ATP (or at least the written ATP), under 28 years
old, and you could have a crooked smile but needed straight teeth. That was
just to weed out the swarm of applicants. Now that airline work is not so
attractive more airlines are hiring with less requirements.
