Does Multi-Engine Time Really Matter in 2026?

from The Daily Preflight

"With the major airlines hiring at breakneck speeds in 2026, many pilots are asking: 'Can I just skate by with the bare minimum of multi-engine time?' In this episode, Jeff Gerencser breaks down the 'Gold Rush' mentality vs. the reality of airline initial training. We dive into why 'checking the box' on your 1,500 hours isn't enough to survive a Type Rating, the real cost of being under-prepared, and why 100+ hours of multi-PIC is still the best insurance policy for your career. Don't just build time—master the machine." Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
