Thanks for the reply rickair7777. Working on my ratings and building time as a CFI/CFII/MEI part-time was something I was considering.

My goal is to fly with a local corporation that flies two citation X's and a bravo. I know the company's owner likes to hire local too. In fact, I have a friend who has a friend that flies for them. I'm going to give that guy a call and maybe become known by the other pilots around the hangar. You're right, who you know is soooo important.

Also, it's good news that pilots don't have to have a 4-year degree. I've got 2+ years of college, but going back to school and working full-time in this job just doesn't work. But I wonder, in this day and age of security, if law enforcement experience would be a benefit to corporate flying?

I'll plan on studying to complete my bfr and instrument proficiency check. I'll fly as often as I can until I was at the level I was when I completed my commercial, then I'll go for my CFI.

Thanks again for the response!
