1600 TT and 100 ME, BS degree aviation, excellent work record. I recently left a major airline where I worked as a Ramp Service Man and made over 50K.

I would start at a regional at 50k but no less. I just can't afford it. I would not go back unless there was some serious furlough protection and sign on bonus.

I left training at a regional 10 years ago due to family issues, but frankly the training sucked. I would have to see that the training has improved over the years.
