I'm 95% sure I'm going to suck up the loan and go through ATP's flight school and learn to fly.

Now the scene is looking grim for a regional pilot so my question to you guys is this.... how do you know when you're resume is competitive for working at one of the major's?

I've got a 4 year bachelor's, from what I've researched, thats a plus.

I suppose I'm trying to construct a realistic plan here... as in...

- Start flight school in August - be done by December and try to work as a CFI to get multi engine hrs.

- After a few months of CFI'ing.... land a job at one of the regionals.

so then what?.... work for how long at the regionals to attain how many hours?....
