I have about 2750 total hours 1500 turbine no pic. I have not flown in years and wonder if I would have any shot if I regained currency and applied.

I make good money in feeders (tractor trailer) $135-$140,000. I work a lot but I am home nightly and have the weekends off.

The money would be better of course at the airline. I would have to commute.bBut I would still have more time off than I currently have.

Mostly thinking out loud here. Curious if I would even have a shot. Thanks for reading.
Man, you sound like the perfect candidate to get on with a regional, upgrade quickly and then apply to Purple or Brown or wherever you’d like, really.
