Step 1
The first way that pilots can build flight time successfully is by flying with other pilots. When pilots split the cost of a airplane both pilots can save 50% but still log 96% of the flight. The reason why both pilots can log most of the flight time and save money is because one pilot flies under a visual restraint device, and the other pilot acts as safety pilot. When a flight requires more than one pilot to safely operate the flight both pilots can log Pilot in command

Step 2
The second way a pilot can build flight time is to volunteer for organizations. There are many organizations out their for pilots to join and build flight time. At the bottom of this page their are some links for pilots to checkout.

Step 3
The third way to build flight time is to fly in a simulator . If pilots are training part 61, pilots can count 50 hours from a approved simulator towards their commercial requirements. Most flight schools have approved flight simulators. Pilots should take advantage of flight simulators.
