ehh not so fast my friend. social blade has him at an estimated yearly earning of 1-16k a year. Typically you make anywhere from 800-1000 dollars per 1 million views in ad revenue.

I’m with Floobs on this. I like this young man’s vids. Well made. Informative. Just the basic facts, with little to no opinion, commentary, or spin presented.

Met Swayne recently. Group setting, several pilots chatting for a while. I never did, and now really don't understand the general annoyance here. It's been said already, but he's just a bit more of an achiever than most of us. Super nice guy who (in my opinion) legitimately wants to help people become more aware of the daily routine, pluses and minuses, of becoming an airline pilot. Who gives a **** if money is part of his incentive? They're well made videos with company permission. Kudos to him. Swayne, if you're reading, good work and keep it up.

I second this. He’s humble and providing a service to aspiring pilots.

Just watched a video of a guy who broke down his pay from YouTube and he has about the same numbers as Swayne. The guys is making $150,000 a year. Due to variables, Swayne might be making less, BUT it’s more than six figures for sure.

Real talk, we need to get Swane to grow a disgusting mustache.

Lots of the people making tons on there are not making it strictly through views but also supporting ads and sponsors, neither of which I’m sure he is allowed to do given the deal with Envoy. I could be wrong, but who cares really.
