Exactly. I don’t know why people don’t understand that the flow works. It’s not magic, it’s not smoke and mirrors, it’s just a great insurance policy. Should you stop applying and working on getting into a major...NO. Will it take a while if you wait for the flow...absolutely.
I for one never wanted to be stuck at a regional or low cost carrier if I hit a runway light or bumped a tug. It’s just good to know that, worst case, you can end your career in a 787 ... not an Embraer.
