Cargo Pilot?

[MatthewCoakley]

Hello,

Please forgive me if this is the wrong section to post in...

I was wondering if any cargo pilots would be able to answer some of my questions via private messaging? :-)

It would be very helpful, as I am a 16 year old who aspires to become a pilot one day, thanks in advance,

Matthew.

Sure; ask questions. I am a 747-400 Captain for a major cargo airline. I am in the US, so I may not be able to answer UK-specific questions.

Note from the start that there is really NO difference in general between "cargo pilots" and other pilots. The main difference is brought on by the perception that there are more entry-level jobs in the cargo segment. While that may have been true in general many years ago, it is not necessarily true today. As with every other aspect of the airline industry, there are regional and local variations.

Hey mate,

Sure, send me one if you like. As old mate above said, theres no diff. The picture up the front is still the same. Just more complaining from down the back with the self loading stuff!
