Is it a reasonable plan?
I know this topic has been touched on several times on the boards, but I would appreciate any input regarding my situation.
I am currently flying charter for a local FBO in a Cheyenne II, IIXL, and occasionally a King Air 90. I also have experience in the Cessna 400 series as air ambulance. No 121 experience.
My current times are: 3600TT / 2600 ME / 1400 Turboprop, I would expect to gain somewhere around 200-300 more hrs by next year.
I will be retiring from the fire department June 30, 2008. I will be 46 years old.
So now to the real question. Considering age/experience, any chance of getting picked up by a major? I know I could most likely get picked up by a regional, but I don't know if that’s what I want. Pay wouldn't really be a factor as I will be getting my retirement.
