Contract ends in May next year and was thinking of going to airlines and get ATPL. I’m planning to stay in the US 8-10yrs max. My countdown starts next year once get in with regional. I plan to head back home and fly there domestic, hope to make bank before I leave. My Question is, where can I make more money with 10yr time frame? Is it going to ULCC’s from regional? Or try my luck with fractional/bizjet operators after a year or 2 with regional? Need advise.
Thanks!
To many unanswered questions:
Where do you currently live? If your in a regional base or non regional base.
Are you married or have a family?
Where will you be returning to? This is bigger question. The reason why this plays a factor is if you could arrange to move back to your homeland and still commute back or just throw in the towel all together?
Both option Part 121 and Part 135 have pros and cons. It will come down to a more individual life style and family decision.
