But if you don't have any special connections, 1000 hours TPIC at mesa could turn into 10,000 hours TPIC at mesa
Two years ago, we wouldn't have said that 1000 hours of TT would guarentee you a job with a regional airline either...And 10 years ago, we'd all expect to be scooped up by a major before we ever got the 1000 TPIC, just never know.
