If you get hired with 500Hrs its going to take you time to get your time for CA. Like a buddie of mine went to left AE to go to a "Fast CA spot" Next thing i knew he was on the street looking for a job. he lost all of his Time and had to start at the bottom of the list sitting Airport RSV. If you people get one thing from this is
1. Where do you want to live/ Commute to? Cause Commuting gets old fast. Just remember you are on probation and can be replaced don't play well there is a pilot shortage going on so they wont fire me card!!!
2. How stable is the place
3.Benifets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
4. Is there growth/ people moving on to biggerthings
5.is it a fun place to work, are there good people there
The argument with AE right now is 8 years. I talked to a DFW ERJ FO the other day who had been there 9 years? Passing up upgrade? Maybe...

EGF is good though.
