My situation: currently flight instructing on G1000 aircraft, have 900 TT with 600 dual given as CFI/CFII/MEI, 97 Multi, 80 night, 390 XC, been in flying 5 years and without gap as commercial for 1.5 years. College degree, no checkride failures.
I'd appreciate the reality on being hired by end of year based in PHX and an upgrade estimate from those informed with facts. Thanks
Flying the PC-12 at BTQ will definitely help you transition into the regional jet, but BTQ has a one year prorated training contract. You'll make CA in no time, but the training contract clock starts over again and CA spot might not be at a base of your liking. Since your TT is @ 900, it might more sense to go straight to a regional. Good luck!
