How to Become a Pilot in BitLife: License Test Answers
Learning how to become a pilot in BitLife starts with separating two goals: earning a flying license and getting hired by an airline. Flight lessons unlock the test, while education and a successful interview help you secure the job.
Quick answer: Finish university, complete 40 hours of Flight School, pass the Pilot’s License test, then apply for Pilot Trainee.
1. How to become a pilot in BitLife: prepare for university
Study Harder during school and keep Smarts high enough to enter university. The pilot career has no known Smarts cutoff, so treat high Smarts as useful preparation rather than a hiring guarantee.
| Requirement | What to prepare |
|---|---|
| Education | Complete university for the airline career |
| Smarts | Keep them high; no known exact cutoff |
| Flight training | Complete 40 hours |
| License | Pass the paid pilot test |
| First flying job | Find Pilot Trainee in full-time listings |
Physics or Mathematics are sensible degree choices, but the listed career requirement is university education. Try a scholarship before borrowing money, and save earnings from a part-time job for lessons.
Graduate school is worth considering if applications keep failing. At least one guide writer could not get hired with only a university degree, although the job listing asks just for university.
Players on the BitLife MOD APK can use God Mode to start a future pilot with high Smarts so less of childhood goes into raising it.
2. Complete 40 hours of Flight School
Open Activities, choose Licenses, and enter Flight School. Buy lessons until your total reaches 40 hours; four purchases of 10 hours meet the training requirement.
You can finish the hours in one year if you have enough money. Check the lesson price shown in your own life before paying, because country and currency can affect costs.
The license exam is a separate purchase, commonly around $1,000 in dollar-based examples. Keep extra savings for another attempt instead of spending your entire balance on training.
A license also forms part of the route to becoming an astronaut. That career has additional training, so passing this test alone does not qualify you for space missions.
3. BitLife pilot test answers
After training, select Pilot’s License under Licenses and pay the exam fee. Match the question or picture carefully; the test can ask about aircraft parts, flight forces, instruments, landing markers, or ground signals.
| Question topic or picture | Answer to select |
|---|---|
| Force opposing drag | Thrust |
| Force opposing thrust | Drag |
| Movable flap on the upright tail | Rudder |
| Movable flap on the horizontal tail | Elevator |
| Compartment where pilots sit | Cockpit |
| Game question about rotational nose movement | Roll |
| Nickname for six main flight instruments | The Six Pack |
| Caution landing marker | Land Cautiously |
| Emergency-use landing marker | Emergency Landing Only |
| Marker forbidding landing | Landing Prohibited |
| Marshaller giving a halt signal | Stop |
| Marshaller directing forward travel | Continue Straight |
| Marshaller directing a left turn | Turn Left |
| Instrument showing climb or descent rate | Vertical Speed Indicator |
| Instrument showing altitude | Altimeter |
| Instrument showing aircraft lean | Lean Indicator |
| Instrument showing heading | Heading Indicator |
“Roll” is the documented game answer for the rotational-nose question, even though its wording is awkward. Instrument names in the table also follow the game’s answer labels.
For picture questions, identify what the image represents before selecting an answer. Do not assume every landing marker or round cockpit dial has the same meaning.
4. Find Pilot Trainee and build your salary
Open Occupation and check the full-time job list for Pilot Trainee in the airline industry. Apply after earning your degree and license, then choose a professional interview response.
If the vacancy is missing, reopen the app and check again, or age up one year. A license does not create a vacancy, so take temporary work if you need income while searching.
| Career stage | Rough annual salary reference |
|---|---|
| Pilot Trainee | Around $65,000 |
| Co-Pilot | Around $45,000 |
| Pilot | Around $71,000 |
| Airline Captain | Not listed in the wiki table |
| Chief Pilot | Around $85,000 |
These are rounded wiki examples, not a guaranteed pay ladder; the wiki’s Co-Pilot figure is oddly lower than Pilot Trainee, while player guides describe Co-Pilot as a raise. Compare the actual offer in your game with our salary ranking before changing employers.
Use Work Harder each year and keep job performance strong. Promotions take experience, and there is no dependable fixed number of years to reach captain.
- Check qualifications before paying for extra education.
- Keep money available for a failed license attempt.
- Avoid excessive work hours if stress becomes a problem.
- Record your current salary before accepting another airline offer.

FAQ
How do you become a pilot in BitLife?
Complete university, purchase 40 hours of Flight School, and pass the Pilot’s License test through Activities and Licenses. Then search full-time jobs for Pilot Trainee and pass its interview. Getting the license and getting hired are separate steps, so you may need to refresh vacancies before finding an opening.
How do you become an airline pilot?
In BitLife, start with the entry-level Pilot Trainee position rather than applying straight for a senior flying role. Keep working and maintain good performance to move through Co-Pilot and Pilot. You do not need to buy a private aircraft for this career; your airline job and personal assets are separate.
How do you get into being a pilot without enough money?
Use a part-time job during education or take temporary full-time work after graduation. Save for both flight lessons and the exam fee before starting training. Buying hours in smaller amounts can help manage your balance, but you still need 40 total hours before taking the pilot license test.
How do you become a captain for an airline?
Build experience in the airline career and use Work Harder each year to support promotions. The documented progression places Airline Captain after Pilot and before Chief Pilot. Keep checking your performance and promotion results instead of expecting captain at a specific age, since the timing can differ between lives.
