Career Reputation

Career reputation is your pilot’s professional trust score. It is separate from XP. XP shows activity and progression. Reputation shows how reliable your Career pilot looks to airlines, employers, and the bank.

Reputation scale

Career reputation runs from 0.0 to 10.0. FlyHub shows it rounded to one decimal place.
ReputationLabel
8.5 to 10.0Exceptional
7.0 to 8.4Reliable
5.5 to 6.9Promising
4.0 to 5.4At Risk
0.0 to 3.9Fragile
Employer standing is based on reputation:
ReputationEmployer standing
8.0 to 10.0Excellent
5.5 to 7.9Good
0.0 to 5.4At Risk

Starting reputation

Your starting reputation depends on Career difficulty.
DifficultyStarting reputation
Easy6.5
Normal5.5
Hard5.0
Hard mode starts lower because it is meant to make Career progression more demanding.

How reputation increases

Reputation mainly increases by completing Career assignments with strong scores. Current base reputation changes from completed Career assignments:
Career assignment scoreBase reputation change
9.8 to 10.0+0.18
9.5 to 9.7+0.15
9.0 to 9.4+0.12
8.5 to 8.9+0.09
8.0 to 8.4+0.07
7.5 to 7.9+0.03
6.5 to 7.40
6.0 to 6.4-0.10
5.0 to 5.9-0.20
Below 5.0-0.35
The score used is the Career assignment score after Career adjustments, including fatigue if it applies. For flight scoring details, see Scoring and XP. For Career-specific scoring effects, see Career Scoring Effects.

Why gains slow down

Reputation becomes harder to raise as it gets higher. At lower reputation, strong flights can move the score faster. At high reputation, the same strong flight still helps, but the visible increase is smaller. This prevents a pilot from jumping from good to perfect too quickly. Because the visible score is rounded to one decimal, a small gain may not immediately change the number shown in the app. Keep flying well and the changes will add up.

How reputation decreases

Reputation can decrease from bad Career outcomes. Common reputation losses include:
EventReputation effect
Career assignment score 6.0 to 6.4-0.10
Career assignment score 5.0 to 5.9-0.20
Career assignment score below 5.0-0.35
Missed assignmentUsually about -0.35, depending on assignment type
Early resignation before 30 days-1.2
Missed loan payment-0.2
Loan default-1.0
High-reputation pilots are held to a slightly higher standard. If your reputation is already very strong, a poor flight can hurt a little more than it would for a lower-reputation pilot.

Fatigue can indirectly hurt reputation

Fatigue does not directly subtract reputation. Instead, fatigue can reduce the Career assignment score. Since reputation is calculated from the final Career assignment score, fatigue can turn a good flight into a weaker score and reduce or remove the reputation gain. Current fatigue rule: after more than 20 Career flights inside 48 hours, additional Career flights can receive a 3-point score penalty. See Career Compliance for the full fatigue rule.

Offline flights and reputation

Offline Career flights can still affect reputation. Offline mode depends on required check-ins, timing, debrief inputs, plausibility, and trust. If the final Career assignment score is strong, reputation can improve. If the score is poor, reputation can fall. See Manual and Offline Mode.

What reputation affects

Reputation affects several Career systems.
SystemHow reputation matters
Job MarketHigher reputation improves acceptance chances and helps with better airlines.
Airline tier gatesHigher-tier airlines require higher reputation.
PromotionsPromotion requirements include reputation and recent performance checks.
Passive offersStrong reputation helps make you more attractive to other airlines.
LoansHigher reputation can improve loan access and lower APR.
Employer standingReputation determines whether your standing looks Excellent, Good, or At Risk.

Job Market reputation gates

Typical airline requirements are:
Airline tierTypical reputation requirement
1-star0.0
2-star3.5
3-star5.5
4-star7.2
5-star8.6
Meeting the reputation requirement does not guarantee acceptance. It only means reputation is not blocking the application. See Career Applications and Offers.

Loan impact

Reputation affects bank terms. Current APR bands:
ReputationLoan APR
8.0 to 10.08%
5.5 to 7.912%
Below 5.518%
Strong credit and reputation can also improve loan capacity. See Career Payroll and Ledger.

How to protect reputation

  • Fly Career assignments cleanly.
  • Avoid fatigue penalties.
  • Do not miss assignments.
  • Use leave if you need time away.
  • Do not resign early unless you accept the penalty.
  • Keep loan payments under control.
  • Do not schedule a line check when you are tired or rushed.
  • Use the correct tracking mode for your simulator setup.

Where to review reputation changes

You can review reputation from:
  • Career Dashboard.
  • Career Profile.
  • Career logbook entries.
  • Career notifications.
  • Job Market requirements.
  • Finance and loan screens.
Completed Career flight entries can show the reputation delta attached to that assignment.
