Also something to be aware of is that it’s usually a couple months from the time you submit your application to your at class. If you want to speed that up and increase your chances go to recruiting events. I have 2 friends who applied with 1000+ hours and previous 135 experience and they have only just finally gotten offers after 3 months of waiting.
I have until June before I’m done with current contract anyway. I’m trying to get to the 750 TT by the end of the contract. I would like to get to 800 so I could be in the accelerated captain program.
