I was thinking CFI or Civil Air Patrol on the side to stay flying if I end up doing the sim gig for an extended period of time. And I assumed that the longer I did the sim job, the longer I'd have to fly regionals on the back side before a major would call me.
I have been expecting to commute for the first few years, so we are prepared for that. Just waiting for the call...
Cheers,
Whoa! You're less than 30 days out?! And no job lined up? Apply to the regional airlines TODAY. That's the smart move to increase your odds of getting a major 121 job. CFI'ing or CAP isn't the answer. Go get 121 stink on you. Don't wait.
