yea connections would be great to have.. problem is, other than on here and current co-workers (most of which have no time/experience or no desire to leave), I may spend a grand total of 2 hours in an FBO a year. It is very difficult to make any connections with those statistics, and I don't expect anyone to provide a letter of rec. based on a few conversations over the internet and If they did feel comfortable enough doing so, I highly doubt it would bring much weight to the interview table.
