You do realize that people can come to Piedmont and upgrade as soon as they have 2,500 TT and 1,000 hours 121 time right? And the flow doesn't keep them from going to "United or the other majors", right?
So yea keep waiting for your upgrade while everyone else builds PIC time FAST and applies to "United or the other majors" before they'll even look at your resume before throwing it out
PDT pilots are now getting buoyed into aal off the street outside of the flow. The legacies need pilots.. keep nose clean, fly right and safe. Get some pic time, a college degree, a little volunteering, a few hours a month at your local food bank, soup kitchen is all you need. We all have connections at legacies.. use them. Help a friend's kid learn how to fly or get a mainline pilots kid im worn your company and mentor him..
