"I must say that it was my honor to have given Mr. Skyhigh his Biennial Flight Review."

You flew that thing after I did a high speed pass under the Vantage bridge? I guess I should have said something to Sky about that.....

Just kidding. It's a good running machine and he got it at a great price.

"Any regionals that might kick some money your way for getting me onboard?"

Naw, it doesn't work that way, yet, as far as I know. I've heard of signing bonuses but they go to the guy who recruits you or give them to people with previous advanced experience.

If you're at 1000/60, you are pretty close to 1200, at which point you'd be a shoe in for 135 freight, like Amflight. Also, at 1000/60, I'd bet there are some regionals you could get on at. Even less time than that. You're new, I hope you can use the search function. I'd spend some time at the regional fourms as they are often talking about hiring mins and who's hiring.

I'd say no reason to do an RJ course. They are a waste of time, first of all, designed to get you in the door with very low quals. You already have enough time for me to say you shouldn't bother with that.

Where do you instruct out of?
