[QUOTE=kansas;345780]Just so you know, you might "move on" to the RJ's from a quick turbine PIC turboprop job, but you aren't "moving up" in that case.
In terms of not moving up is all relative. I'm 46. I fully and completely understand that my entire career may be spent at a regional airline. I'm ok with that. It's all good. However, at the same time, I recently made some contacts at UPSCO and was told.....point blank....that when I met the mins....give'em a call.
Of course that made me just as giddy as kid in a candy store, however I was told that in 99% of the cases when it comes to hiring at that level, it's not so much as "how much time and experience do you have", that's important; but "Can I live & get along with this person for the next month while flying with them." This is straight from the mouths of two freightdawgs that have a combined total experience of 40 years. One's at FedEx and the other UPS. Being able to assimilate one's self into a corporate culture is important; very important.
