I used to know Mr. Terry Metford now Chief Pilot of Pinnacle Airlines.
I got interview with them in 1999.…, and ... 2002.…..
I am wonder if Kim still in charge of the HR.
Anyway to make the story short …regarding the flight time and a possible hiring with this Company,……….. you have to know someone …. no matter what do you have..!!! I know for my personal experience. I was introduced form someone in the Company…and in a matter of two days I got an interview with them . Unfortunately this was post 9-11 so I have to compete with pilots coming from NWA …so go figure…!!!!!!
........ Jet U or not Jet U ….I think the program that they are presenting in this school is extremely valuable. However, personally I would not pay 27k for a 14 weeks when there are company in the Miami Area that will be able to give you a chance to fly Cargo or Corporate,……… with a good pay check, and gain a lot experience.
Post 9-11 I have to earned hours through CFII and Corporate jobs. I didn’t pay 30k or 50k for schools ..actually I got paid 30k and 60 k and able to get experience.
As far concern 121 experiences I suggest you ATP for about 6 days for 6k (6-6k) …………it would give you a chance for a fast track to the REG…..
and ..,
If you are a “ Rich daddy’s boy or girl …

...well the best school is definitely …. CAPT School ………55 hours PIC and 55 SIC on the MD90 with (Type Rating).……. CRM and such…..which will get you everywhere
