2. Does having a B737 type rating with no time in the actual airplane hurt you?

3. Would leaving my CA seat to go to someplace that flies big birds internationally (omni, kalitta) help or would staying where I'm at be better?


Thanks!
You could also look at the idea of becoming a professional instructor for FedEx. This is one of the best ways to get your foot in the door, especially if you don't have contacts at FedEx.
