I now have a offer to fly for MESA on the Ejet in houston(OCT class) I will be 50-60 on seniority FOs for the ejet, so I will hold a line here also. However I will have to commute not so much fun.
I have two questions,
Would I get hired with a Marj. faster if I am flying a ejet or a tprop? I have my 1000 Hours PIC but is all part 91.
Which would you choose and why?
Some things to possibly consider.
1.) Where will you be based at Silver? Silver appears to be in major transition with their bases. Some of the Florida bases appear to be closing as well which I'm sure is a major upset at Silver for the pilots that have been there a long time.
2.) How long to upgrade at Mesa?
3.) What will year 2 pay be at either airline?
