#1. Friend don't let friends fly for MAG.

#2. You are going to get JA's etc. so much you will not have days off AND the line you are awarded will be reassigned SO MUCH it will not be the one you fly.

#3. Don't expect a quick upgrade with 500 pic and 600 total. you have about 1000 pic left needed to upgrade, or pic x 2 for sic time needed. This will be about 2 or more years at MAG before you can upgrade here.

I will bet that Skywest would hire you in a New York minute. Don't waste your life over here at MAG- it is a joke that will wear you down and burn you out. Find employment where you will be respected (more at least). You should still interview for the practice though.

G'luck.
