Default Making the MILITARY JuMp~

In the grand scheme of a pilots life, a life in the airline industry is WAY better than life in an attack helicopter community… that is if money is not an issue to the person making the jump… I’m a AH-64 pilot, and I have around 1300TT. 1000 of that 1300 is Helo. I’m currently working on my FW ME and if things go as planned, I’d like to have it done soon and start flying on the weekends to build time. Does anyone know of any good time builders, or any advice for someone looking to climb over that 100 FWME hour level, and quickly? I’m eligible for release from my military contract in September. How soon should I start giving my resume to regional airlines? As soon as I hit the 100 mark? Before? And most importantly, does Helo time count for TT? Last but not least, how long is this hiring ramp-up of pilots gonna last? Any words of advice would most greatly be appreciated!!!
