My First Post - About Me!

Hi and thanks for viewing my blog! I'm an Airline Pilot in service with Continental Airlines and currently fly the Boeing 737. Prior to joining the Continental family, I worked for Continental Express and flew the ATR42 and the EMB 135/145.

The purpose of this blog is to give you a glimpse into the life of an airline pilot and what it takes to become one. I'm relatively young, at 29, to be an airline pilot. I have been in service with the airlines for the past 8 years as well.

I have the knowledge, the experience, and the stories that will help you become an airline pilot in short order. Plus I plan to entertain you with stories from my flying experience and from my friends in the industry. I will update this blog with pictures and information regarding my monthly schedule and where I travel to each and every trip.

Thank you for visiting and check back often!

Hello Micheal.
I'm Reza from Tehran, Iran, 31y/o and I'll be 32 next fall the time I want to enroll at a college or university to get a 4-years degree and to be a professional pilot, I've searched long time (10 months)and I almostly know the routine process and it's difficulties such as TSA permission for an alien flight student, get an us visa for an Iranian but now my issue is that what college is the best for me while I can invest only 100000$ during my education and if it is necessary for me to get a b.s degree for a airline pilot while I have a b.s in mechanical engineering from a university intehran?
Thank you very much.
