Got hired at Colgan in 2005, left for XJT in 2006, I am still an FO.........
6,000hrs TT, 4,500 SIC Jet......

I haven't made it, that's for sure, lol....... I won't feel like I made it until I get on with a legacy etc...

Just get a degree,non aviation preferably, luck and timing has more to do with this "making" it then anything else...........


Some guys got hired at XJT, upgraded in under 2 years on went to a Major within 6 months of Upgrading, some guys have been here for 10 years and can't get an interview.....

I am due to upgrade in the next class, if I can't get on with a Major within a year, (during this next wave), I'm going to leave flying and work for the family business. The ability to drive to work and make good to great money will be worth it , still can't believe Inhavent left yet, but Inguess knowing its always there means I can be patient
