Chances of avoiding commute in mid-atlantic?
I'm at 400 hours with everything but CFI, MEI, and ATP currently with a non-aviation government job. Considering a getting my CFI and initiating to a career change in to part 121 depending on how fast I can build 1,500.
I'm fortunate to live in an area close to many big airports. 1 hour to PHL. 2 to JFK/LGA, 1.5 to EWR. While I know nothing in this industry is guaranteed, would it be sane to think that I would have a really good chance at landing a FO position in base (PHL, EWR, or NY) with any airline?
