To me they offered one in a half after atp that realistically is closer to 3 years. I have 900h and will take no more than 1 year to get to 1500 if i do the CFI then ($25h). Then in one year i can apply to a good regional that pay at least ($45h) I have an offer from Republic Airlines for that amount and minimum of (75h) a month guarantee once i get to 1450h. Second year at ($55h) plus $10.000 bonus with atp training and paid by them plus EMB190 rating for 1y minimum at signing.
Also, I do have an offer from Silver Airways at ($35h) for 1 year once I get to 1450h. They will pay me the CFi course and wait until the I get the minimum time then 1y contract, turbo prop rating and ATP paid by them..no bonus.
Cape Air is a good option too, nice company etc. But the payment is low 11 and 17 after ATP. The training is nice too but that training is no a base req to go to mayor and make good or decent money plus big turbine rating.
I will reply to Cape tomorrow and ask them if the can make it to 1y after 1500h and if they agree maybe I will sign the contract. If not I will get $4500 for my CFI and then go to Republic Airlines...if not then I'll go to Silver Airways.
It's a matter of time and money.
