I started as a student in the winter of '08. By the time I became an instructor and was hired in '09, the economy had it's down turn and suddenly there were no more students and too many instructors. I instructed for about 4 years before i got on with a regional, of the 4 years i instructed at Aerosim for about a year and a half. Now there is plenty of work at Aerosim for an instructor. It was from Aerosim that the regional airline i currently work for picked me up.
