At the moment, I'm feeling a bit impatient, but that's no surprise for a flight instructor, I believe!
I totally understand- I just happened to have the atp mins when I got fed up with instructing. It was a busy school and it didnt take long. If I were to do it again, I wouldve left instruction the minute I got fo mins, however, you're in for a long haul before you get to ATP mins and then you will owe them 12 months as a Captain while you're losing seniority elsewhere. PM me if you want to talk- Ill tell ya all I know...that should take about 34 seconds.
