I agree being home almost every night, no commuting, and the job security trumps any airline out there. My resume, along with 10,999 others are on United's airline apps, no bites. nothing from Virgin, Spirit, etc. 6,000 TT, 2 types, 3,500 turbine PIC.
The agency I am looking at opens its application window early next year. In the mean time I'll work on my fitness and study the multiple choice test prep. I have a clean background, ex military, and excellent health so I should check all the boxes. Very competitive though and most don't make the cut.
Nothing to lose by trying.
Would you share what agency that may be?
In a previous post you mentioned a local Sheriff's department, but I doubt you'd be looking at direct entry into an aviation unit.
