I am choosing to use this as motivation to get instrument current in the hopes of scoring an interview with an LCC. I suspect other regionals might overlook lack of currency in DEC qualified candidates. I figure an IPC will make me more confident going into a new training event and will definitely make me more confident in applying to a wider variety of airlines. Training for the right seat at an LCC sounds more appealing to me than a DEC position even though I have been an RJ captain before. Good luck.
Thanks for the response! Are you thinking of getting your IPC at Flight Safety or do you think going up in a 172 would suffice?
