2. Not really. Unlike foreign airlines the big U.S. airlines don’t care if you have time in type. Smaller companies might prefer that.

3. American Airlines has a ‘flow’ program that guarantees you a job at AA. It’s a 7-10 yr estimated flow. But you can apply to every other airline in the meantime as your resume improves.

4. This website has ‘airline profiles’ near the top of the page. Some options are listed there. Locations, equipment, pay, etc.

5. Find a job and move there. As a pilot you can Jumpseat/non-rev to your base. Your best option is getting a base where her job is. Commenting to work takes away a lot of free time.

6. For a regional? Probably not. For a major Your resume isn’t that competitive right now. With two years of regional experience you’ll be at the lower end of where guys are getting hired. In five yrs your resume will be average.
