Maybe not directly on point to this thread but with a bit a twist. I already have a non-aviation job that allows me to be highly flexible and I can work on the road during down times. I flew for a 91 flight department for 12 years doing this until 2013. I fly for the enjoyment and dont financially need the job...I just want to do it.
I have been offered a job with a regional and I am wondering if maintaining my "real job" and flying for a Regional is possible. I can do about 4 days on the road before things start getting backed up in my real job. I am unfamiliar with the 121 world. So, What I am asking is whether scheduling within the 121 world allows for down time such that I can do my other work remotely. Are there others out there doing this? What kind of latent problems are there to this sort of arrangement? Thanks in advance.
