My question is, what is the best way to get into these places? I can get on at a regional with my current times, but really not looking fwd to the commute and I'm not moving. I have a few little side jobs flying single engine fixed wing, but it's only about 10-20hrs a month. There really isn't a lot of other options near my home. Should I just bite the bullet and go to a regional for a year or so and get the multi time and then apply? Thanks.
Yeah, I think you should just bite the bullet and go to a regional for a year. When that year is over, I'm sure you will be in an even more unique position and you can get on easily with Netjets or Delta Private Jets. There really aren't that many other regional pilots with that kind of experience who would want one of those jobs, anyway. Hell, you might be able to be Warren B's private pilot and fly his Helos and his BBJs!
Good Luck!
