Pilots at American

Safe, professional, skilled – when you think of an American Airlines pilot, those are the qualities that immediately come to mind. At American, we understand that being a pilot is about more than just the technical aspect of flying an airplane … it’s also about the joy of flying and the thrill of adventure.

We pride ourselves in hiring the best pilots in the industry through our holistic evaluation of each candidate. Our pilots are not only leaders on the aircraft – they are also leaders in our operation. That requires a special type of person; someone who can anticipate a need, develop a plan, and lead team members together to deliver a safe and reliable operation.
