Pacific Elite Pilot Status

Once a pilot has achieved 1000 hours you retain the rank of ATP Senior Commander but also achieve the additional status as a Pacific Elite Pilot. Elite pilot status adds certain privileges over and above normal flight restrictions.

An Elite Pilot can fly any aircraft in the Pacific fleet between any two airports worldwide. These flights can be flown entirely outside Pacific’s route system and do not require the airport(s) to be an airport in our system. However, it is required that the aircraft used is realistic for the route. You may fly as many of these flights consecutively as you desire. However, you are still bound by the flight line rules if you continue your regular flights. It would be best to begin your next routine flight from the last airport you were at before you started your special Elite Pilot flights. When logging Elite flights, use your 4-digit PID number, i.e., PAY****, as the flight number on your manual pireps and in ACARS
