Default Time building in SoCal or AZ

I am short a few hours for my ATP, I need about 60 PIC 6 at night and 16 XC. Any ideas the fastest way to get them? I have my CFI but I currently fly SIC on a ERJ 145 in Mexico, My goal is to get to the regionals ASAP so I can quit my job to get those hours no problem.

Thanks for the help.

If I were in your shoe and I am close to getting the ATP I would stick with the company to get those in so that I would not have to pay to rental an airplane to get those in especially I believe envoy has good offer for people who have experience in 121/135 but almost all airline are in need of pilot so you in a good postion to get on. Right now I would love to have your experience in the ERJ 145. If I had that I would apply for any airline once I got the ATP Mins.

Also Try and meet with the airline recruiters and let them know where you are at which they may be able to do something about helping you to get those in when you get hired on. Hope that help you out.

If you still want to spend the money check I to doing a time build, I show somewhere on APC that there a person that offer a good rate on time build in ME in Wisconsin I believe.

I am not talking about renting, I am talking about getting a job for a couple of months to get those hours, CFI, skydiving, banner towing I would do either to get the PIC time

Republic Covers the last 100 hours of your needed flight time. From i understand they send you to a flight school in the midwest (Ohio?) and you knock out whatever it is you need on their dime. I beleive they pay for the rental and you just go fly.
