Pilot Pathway Program

Primary Job Duties

Until ATP or R-ATP minimums are met

• Work closely with Sky West mentors

Enhanced company seniority, guaranteed interview, access to a Pathway Advocate, and an interview prep session, are just a few of the upgrades students can receive by joining the Sky West Pilot Pathway Program. Unlike an internship, the Pilot Pathway Program allows students to remain at their campus to complete their flight training. Each member of the program is individually mentored by Sky West advocates and pilots, and may have the opportunity to participate in Sky West recruiting events and outreach programs.

Please note that this is an unpaid position. Lodging will be provided if required to travel for company business.

• Be either an active student at a certified flight school (part 61 or 141) or actively engaged in time building, including military flying, toward becoming a commercial pilot
• Be a U.S. citizen or able to show proof of right to work in the U.S.
• May not have more than two check ride failures
• Most actively update flight hours, 1x per month, through your skywestonline portal to stay enrolled in the program

If not enrolled at one of Sky West's elite partners you must also meet the following:

• Hold a Private Pilot License, an Instrument Rating, and a Commercial Rating
• Have a minimum of 250 flight hours
