ATP, the types in my profile, and the rest of it (passport, class 1 med, etc), but like many other folks (with higher quality experience), my phone isn't ringing off the hook despite apps in everywhere. Seriously considering applying for a regional position to add 121 to the resume.
It looks like the math says 6-7 months until a mil guy would accrue his 500+500 121 time... Just a helluva gamble if the music was to stop sooner vs later at year 1 FO pay.
If there are some TSA Captains reading this thread, I'd appreciate a PM to ask some more questions.
You're going to spend no less than 10 months on 1st year pay. It'll take approximately 3 to get through training and 7-8 to get 500 depending on the timing of IOE.
