Time Building

Build hours toward the airlines at a fraction of the cost. Two pilots, one airplane, shared goals.

What this is

If you're a certificated pilot working toward the airlines and looking for an affordable way to build flight time, this is for you. This isn't flight instruction and it isn't an aircraft rental, it's two pilots going up together in my Cherokee 180, both logging time, both working toward the same goal.

I'm building hours toward the airlines myself, and I know how expensive it can be to do it alone. This setup lets us both get in the air more often at a cost that makes sense. We fly together, cross-countries, local flights, whatever makes the most sense for building quality time. You fly, I fly, we both log it.

How it works

Simple setup, no complications.

01

Reach out

Send me a message and let me know your experience level, what certificates you hold, and your availability. We'll figure out if it's a good fit.

02

Schedule a flight

You tell me when you're free, we plan the flight, and we go. Cross-countries, night time, pattern flying, whatever fits your goals.

03

Fly and log

We go up, share the flying, and both log the time. There is the flat rate per hour, no surprises, no hidden costs.

Requirements

Here's what you need to fly with me.

Private Pilot Certificate or higher

Valid medical certificate

Current third-class medical or higher. BasicMed is also accepted.

Good attitude & professionalism

Rate

$100
per flight hour

You bring yourself, your logbook, and your headset, I handle the rest.

Important information

This isn't flight instruction

Time building flights are not instructional. I won't be teaching, evaluating, or endorsing anything. We're just two pilots sharing an airplane and building hours together. If you're looking for training, a flight review, or a refresher, check out my Training pages instead.

This isn't aircraft rental

The airplane is not available for solo rental. All time building flights are flown together, I'll be in the right seat and we both fly. That's the arrangement, and it's what makes the reduced rate possible.

Let's build hours together

The hours won't log themselves. Reach out and let's start flying.
