From golden state cfi to first officer with skywest

Working at Golden State Flying Club full time as a flying instructor Glenn built up his flying hours and is now a First Officer with Skywest for over 2 years.

Along the way are ups and downs.  During the economic downturn Glenn tried out being an operator for the 911 system and found it not to be a pleasant experience!  He came back to Golden State,, gained more flight hours and earned the job he was shooting for... as a pilot for an airline.

Glenn's path worked, he was paid for his flying time and earned enough time to qualify for an airline.  Check out Skywest's Job Facebook Here.  Be sure to call us at (619) 449-0611 to schedule an intro flight.  Once you earn your pilot's license you can teach others how to fly, be paid while getting the flight hours you need.  All airline pilots follow two paths they can either be retired military pilots, Certified Flying Instructors (CFI's), some try to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars at aviation schools but the best type of aviation is flying and being paid to do so.
