Right now most with 1500 hours and a clear background are getting hired at regionals.
Do you mean programs like ATP? I know the nearest program through them is in Chicago, five hours away. The University of Mankato is another formal track, I believe, but surely not fast? That’s an hour to an hour southwest of me. I do already have a college degree. With ATP, how ‘fast’ does one get to a point of being hirable versus more traditional routes? Any other fast track options? I am assuming local, traditional flight schools that offer ‘fast track’ training programs don’t count?
