Hello!

I’m Charles Simmons, a 14,000-hour ATP with over 30 years in the cockpit. I’ve flown jets all over the world—from the Boeing 737 to the Gulfstream G-IV, G-1159, G200, HS-125, and Learjet. I hold CFI, CFII, and MEI credentials, and today I serve as Director of Operations in Texas.

I founded Chief Pilot Academy to guide pilots through every phase of their career—from first steps to airline transitions and back again. This course is part of that mission.

You’re here because you’re serious about exploring a career in aviation—and we take that seriously. This isn’t just a collection of videos. It’s a structured, real-world roadmap designed to help you make informed decisions, build professional readiness, and connect with a community that understands your journey.

You’ll find practical lesson assignments, scenario-based insights, and a final decision framework that helps you move from curiosity to clarity. Whether you’re just starting out or refining your next move, this program is built to meet you where you are—and guide you forward.

Let’s get started. — Charles

Who Is This Course For?

  • People who are thinking about becoming a pilot but haven’t committed and need real information before deciding

  • People who will sponsor a son, daughter, grandson, or granddaughter and want clarity before investing

  • People established in a career who are seriously considering a transition into aviation

What Categories Do We Focus On?

  • Career clarity — understanding the eight aviation communities

  • ​Training pathways — civilian, college, military, and hybrid options

  • ​Financial planning — costs, timelines, and realistic expectations

  • ​Lifestyle and culture — what the day‑to‑day actually looks like

  • ​Professional readiness — skills, habits, and maturity markers

  • ​And so much more!

Who Is This Course NOT For?

  • People looking for hype, shortcuts, or a guaranteed outcome instead of real-world truth

  • People who aren’t willing to do the work, reflect honestly, or engage with the assignments

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How long does it take to become a professional pilot

Most students reach employable status in 12–24 months depending on path, pace, and finances.

Do I need a college degree to fly for the airlines

Technically no. Realistically Yes. When the market has high demand, low supply of pilots you may not need it but when there is low demand and a high supply then the market becomes hyper competitive.

Can't I learn all of this on Youtube?

A lot of it you can piece together but it would take an excessive amount of time. We bring everything together in one place and structure it in an easy to find, logical sequence. You don't have to hunt for it. What you need when you need it. And there is a fair amount that cannot be found on you tube.

What if the aviation lifestyle isn't a fit for me??

If you determine that the lifestyle doesn't work for you then this course was the best investment you could have made. It just saved you a very large invoice. Now you can focus on other career avenues that are more realistic for your life and your needs. Its not a bad thing. It's AWESOME!

Should I invest in Pro Pilot Career Explorer before taking my first flying lesson?

YES! You should definately get this course and finish it BEFORE spending a penny on flight training.
