Former FO, 3 OVI convictions...
Just curious...I was an FO for a regional carrier about 5 yrs back, came into some personal problems and resigned. Since than I've had 3 OVI's. I kinda gave up on the whole aviation career at that time. Just curious...would I have a snow balls chance in hell at getting back into it? Honesty please! 2500 TT 200 ME...(150 of that ERJ 145). I'm just interested

I understand, and that's why I was just curious. I've had 3 in 5... But I've also been to treatment and have gotten better..I don't know if that would help though? Has ANYONE ever heard of someone getting hired with 3 OVI's? I've heard of 1, and if you "know someone" maybe 2, but never heard of 3. Anyone heard of this?

I would say the chances are near zero. That's also assuming everything else is 100% squeaky clean.
However, apply and see what happens. If you are, in fact, better, I commend you on your recovery and wish you the best.
