Dont do the PFT thing, like the Embry Riddle Capt, Gulfstream, or Jet University thing. I think the ATP this is the way to go if you want to do it fast. But the FBO thing is just as good as long as you dont mind it taking just a while longer. There are so many options out there, you just have to figure out what will work for you. I went to ATP, instructed, and flew for a private company in a turbo prop before making my way to the airlines. ATP isnt a bad option but it is not the only option. Do your research and just remember that the cheapest or the most expensive is not always the best.
