I have just over 4,000 TT all turbine, just mostly Helo with about 150 FW turbine hours. I have all the ATP mins minus the FW total time. Just wanted to see what everyone thinks. Appreciate your time and comments.
Ahcroe, I did 20 and went right into regionals while on terminal leave. I have the FW time but not currency. That's a major issue for majors. Updated apps with currency 6 months ago and am hoping to hear something soon. Regional life isn't great but it should get you where you need to go eventually. BMD
