What are you thinking? Leave a solid govt job with retirement to come to the mescaline based clown show? If you come to the clown show, expect to make minimum wage, no retirement and my dogs medical insurance is better than mine. This is my 3rd career and the 2 prior were govt. I regret leaving more and more as I get older. The best you can hope for will to be at a regional for a year or 2 and onto a major, but as of today without 121 turbine PIC you aren't competitive, so add a 5-6 year tour at the regionals, assuming a 2 year upgrade and a year or two on reserve to get the 1000 TPIC, that leaves you 6-7 years into the hiring boom, enjoy being on reserve for longer and longer as the hiring takes hold.
Newsflash 121 flying isn't that great, its a job on the best of days and after a tour on reserve your will hate the job.
Grow up, finish what you started, get the retirement, and go to some third world region and fly a Pilatus Porter for fun with Susi Air or something like that. But do what you gotta do, you can swing my gear for 35K a year....
