It’s a real cheap resume booster and will do you more good than the bogus masters degree you did and squadron officer’s school put together...
I totally agree that it’s a free resume booster for the airlines. However, so is a masters degree, your mil equivalent CFI, etc. The more you can make yourself stand out from the crowd, the faster you will wind up where you want to be. Don’t be that guy who thinks all military guys are entitled to a high paying gig and then can’t understand why they have to polish their resume at a regional. Not so much aimed at you excargodog as some of the folks I’ve seen flub the transition.
