To clarify my input to ANYONE who wants to go from zero hours or anywhere in between to a "dream legacy" job......here's my two cents.

1. Get the TPIC any way you can.

2. Get the 121 glass time (turboprop or jet).

3. Don't forget that there are many people who would love to be sitting where you are.....even at a regional with a crappy contract....haha So, don't forget about the FAs, ground handlers, bus drivers, etc. that you interact with every day. You may inspire one of them.

4. If you are young enough with no wife and kid, maybe you can sacrifice QOL, good contracts, and pay to get the TPIC......many of us have slept in our cars in years past.

5. If you ever need help, ask.

6. Keep your record clean.....driving & flying.....minimize the pink slips.

Good luck, I'm out...
