If you are right, then an envoy pilot will get hired off the street just like everyone else so it won't matter. If you are wrong and you are at GoJets, RAH, SkyWest etc... it will be too late. I'm just saying an "Ace in the Hole" is better than having nothing at all.


Can you guarantee that between now and your "Guaranteed Off the Street Mainline Job Offer" that you won't have a bad day and fail a checkride, or be involved in an aviation accident or incident? I know of more than a few really good pilots that got involved in a bad situation, not entirely their fault but now have FAA Action on their history. What if your wife/girlfriend goes crazy, makes wild accusations against you and now you have restraining order to explain during your Delta Interview. Lots of things can happen to the flow but there are also lots of things that can happen to make you wish you had it.
