How much do test pilot jobs pay per year?
What Is a Test Pilot?
A test pilot flies new and modified aircraft to evaluate performance and safety features. Job duties include gathering observational data during test flights, documenting whether an aircraft is operating properly, and making recommendations for improvements. You can find test pilot jobs in the commercial transportation industry and with the government, through the military or the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). You must be a fully qualified pilot with some additional training for this career.

What is the difference between Test Pilot vs Test Engineer?
| Aspect | Test Pilot | Test Engineer |
|---|---|---|
| Required Credentials | Pilot license, aviation certifications | Engineering degree, technical certifications |
| Work Environment | Aircraft, flight testing facilities | Laboratories, testing sites, design offices |
| Industry Usage | Aerospace, aviation companies | Aerospace, automotive, electronics industries |
| Primary Focus | Flying aircraft to evaluate performance and safety | Designing, developing, and executing tests on products or systems |
Test Pilots primarily focus on flying aircraft to assess performance and safety, requiring pilot licenses and aviation certifications. Test Engineers, on the other hand, develop and conduct tests on various systems or products, often with engineering degrees. While both roles are vital in aerospace, Test Pilots are flight-focused, whereas Test Engineers work in labs and design testing procedures.
