Hello
I started out flying C152's and got my PPL back in 1999. Went into the Marine Corps right after and flew helicopters. I've been an helo guy most of my life but would like to shift gears and fly airplanes. About 5,000 hours helo and 300 hours airplanes.

Hi,
I'm hitting the submit button on all my apps this week. ATP with 1500 hrs. I'm wondering if there's a master thread somewhere for current hiring trends, i.e.
"Got an interview offer at xxxx airline on 3/1/22....
Total Hours: 1800
PIC: 500
Hours flown in the last year: 0"
Surely this data exists? Seems like it would be the #1 most useful post for those like me anxiously waiting..trying to figure out when to start the process to separate from the military and schedule terminal leave. Don't want to start separating too early (my hours currently only at the mins) or too late (giving up potential seniority)
Thanks!

Hey all
Hi everyone,
I'm currently a first officer at a US regional airline and joined this forum to talk about hot topics and gain some insight on the industry. I've been flying for 11 years, professionally for 3.
I also am looking to get some more information about an app we use everyday here - but I will wait until I have access to more forums to get that information.

Married Into Aviation
Husband of a second officer at a foreign commercial carrier. She holds a Multi-Engine Land-Instrument-B777-300ER rating in her country. I'm US-born, she's not.
I've spent a lot of time configuring sims for her and helping her preparing for tests over the years. She does all the flying. Now it's time for us to move to Los Angeles so I can take care of my aging relatives.
I'm joining to get some career guidance that I can pass to her as she's not into forums as much as I am. I'll ask the rest in the career group once approved.

Finally made it here.
Hullo everyone! I am a Regional Captain with a diverse background before that. Have been hunting for a “big pilot” job but not enthusiastically enough until recently. Had apps in for multiple years and got a class date (yipeee!) from a splendid company (double yippee!!) and that class date is coming up. Hoping to network with new coworkers and learn more about how to do well as a pilot there.

Hello
Long-time reader, first-time poster. After two decades of wondering whether a full-time aviation career was ever going to be a possibility, I’m blessed to have the support of my family in pursuing this dream. In the past four and a half years, I’ve gone from instructing part time to full time, flying charter in the Lower 48 and scheduled Part 135 in Alaska, to three-plus years at a great regional carrier. I’m extremely fortunate to have a choice on which legacy carrier I’ll join to finishing out my professional career.
