It can be difficult to understand the path of becoming an airline pilot. You may be wondering what the required steps are and if you can go straight to the airlines after the completion of training. Airlines require you to have 1500 flight hours before flying with them. Therefore, you will need to build flight time after you complete training which helps you obtain an estimated 300 hours.
