Many of you were military. I'm keeping a bit of that mentality for this. I understand that you can eat your cake and have it too at certain regionals that provide better benefits, better time off schedules, etc. I'm going for the trenches. Fly when I'm on the schedule. Volunteer to fly on days off. I exist to do two things; chew bubblegum and fly aircraft. But where will I get the best opportunity?
“Most flight hours” and “don’t care about upgrade” don’t really mesh. Why do you want flight hours? After awhile right seat 121 time has diminishing returns on your resume.
