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
