I agree Rick, an ATP is priceless.. When I started this back in the 80s, the mins to apply to a commuter was 1,500 with 500 ME.
It was still like that in the late 90's as well. I was trying to get an interview back then with the regionals and most places still had 200-500 multi min not to mention high total time . I had to go grind it out hauling checks at night and never regretted that experence for a min.
