The flight schools that I have gone to have had on option of taking a year contract (which of course pays more) or going month to month. Anyway, I am aware that the pay is low for the FO program, but me personally, I would rather be flying a "real" flying job then instructing. I really don't want to go the 121 route either, so I was hoping to hope on a 135 outfit shortly after finishing school.
Just another question if anyone knows, if I would enter Airnet's FO program, does my sinority start when I am a FO, or when I move into a PIC?
