For context, there’s movement starting to happen in the industry. With my quals almost meeting CA mins, I wanted to set myself up for success. I do have a CJO with a regional. Though they asked who’s still interested and said training department is spoiling, they don’t know when they would take in new hires. Trying to decide what would be beneficial is all.

Any idea on time frame and what they will be flying? I’m local and considering a career change from a desk job. Thanks

Now, now...you have never seen my mom's basement.

Take the job that is in the hand. So if you were offered a class date at AMF. Go AMF and not look back at your decision. There will be opportunities to gain 121 time in the future.

Thats what I’ve been hearing. Technically, the job in hand is a regional. Just need my time. Guess I’ll shoot an app out whenever a BE99 position is open.

Go to the regional......unless you spend a really long time flying 135 freight, you’re still going to spend time at the regionals.
