Transition WSO to Airlines
Good day,
AD at 19 years, F-15E WSO, working on finishing my instrument right now with about 170hrs of GA time. Planning on finishing up in 3 years (ADSC due to bonus), and during that time getting up to CFII, etc and grabbing hours as I can.
Attempting to limit the time between retirement and getting hired by a regional. We are planning for the financial side of that impact so it isn't going to be drastic, but definitely would need to progress quickly on the hours. Primary right now is instructing to get the hours vice 135 as I want to stay with the family (3 kids), but if anyone as thoughts on that let me know.
Plan to apply for Skywest Pilot Pathway and probably others, since being an 'old' guy, need to get any benefit I can with this type of career change.
Appreciate the forum, looking forward to any feedback on my thoughts above...
