Pilot Ranks

Pilots are NOT restricted to certain aircraft types by ranks. At UVA, we believe that our pilots should be able to fly their favorite aircraft, regardless of if they are just starting with us or if they are a seasoned pilot. However, PIREPs are graded by our system and/or staff and all pilots must fly aircraft in which they are competent and comfortable in flying, otherwise their PIREPs may be rejected. Pilots will still be assigned a rank based upon hours flown for bragging rights and payroll purposes. Please see the table below for a breakdown of hours required for each rank.
