Re: College - I've heard plenty of pilots say you should get the 4 year degree in something that isn't flying. The airlines don't care what your degree is in, so get a degree that will give you a backup plan if flying doesn't work out. There are a lot of things that can derail a pilot career even if you love it, from recessions to medicals to technological changes.

Just wanted to say, thank you for inspiring & informing us about the aviation industry. I joined an accelerated flight program last November and I got my PPL last month. Your videos helped me take that hard first step into the aviation world and I have no regrets. You’re a huge inspiration! Thank you

About to get my CFI and honestly I’ve been struggling mentally lately with burn out and wanting to get to the end goal of the airlines. Appreciate the motivating words to stay the course and keep the eyes on the prize. Really helpful!!

You are my favorite content creator. You helped me realize that I want to do something different with my life. I want to fly and I honestly never knew that before. I didn't come from an aviation family so I was never around it. So it took me a long time to find this. It wasnt until I came to Florida around all the flight schools here that I even realized that flying was so huge. I came from a small northern town where things like this weren't even talked about. So being on your channel really helped me to know how far I could go with aviation.

Nonreving is a blessing and a curse. My mom works for AA and I’ve been nonreving my entire life❤️ love your vids Garrett!

Always a pleasure to hear your thoughts! For your next Q&A vid I was wondering if you could answer how you are able to hang out with friends and stay social when you have such a different schedule? Thanks!

You are an inspiration. I love that you are so frank and honest about sharing your personal experience.

I am turning 50, and I am switching career. After being a pediatrician for 24 years, I signed up for ATP and getting my Class I physical this month. My grandfather was a pilot in the first Chinese nasal Air Force, and both of my uncles were fighter jet pilots. I am pursuing my second dream and my destiny.

Fantastic video as usual Garret! You are a huge inspiration to me. Being an airline pilot has been my goal for a while now and I’m almost done with my instrument rating. Thank you so much for the value of your YouTube content!

I would love to see a video guest starring you uncle to show/tell the differences between airlines and other pilot jobs. Or if you could get in contact with your uncle and get more details into the job in general. A nice comparison video

Team Garrett. Just passed my instrument written today. All I got to say to you is your lady is missing out. You deserve better I know how much work you've put in to get to where you are and there's millions of women that would be blessed to have you. Do you brother. I'll stay loyal 🤙

Thanks for answering my question about bella! Your YouTube channel has helped me realize that becoming a pilot is what I want to do for my career. I took my discovery flight yesterday and am going to start working towards my PPL asap

[ukraineexcursions]

Only 11 days off a month - LOL! I'm leaving the USPS to fly, have been getting one day off a week for the last two years. Have my PPL and working on my instrument. Thanks for the video!

THANK YOU! Just moved to Daytona Beach, about to start my aviation classes. Now getting my FAA medical exam. Looking forward to seeing your channel grow.

Among the best Q&A's I have ever watched. Always ahead in this game of life. If I retired at 42, anyone can.

Love your video. I have made the decision to pursue being an airline pilot, and I will continue to watch your videos.
