Looking to be based in LAX. Any recommendations on what I should do to get the majors to notice me?
Thanks!
Apply! Seriously those numbers and your instructor experience makes you very competitive. We are hiring pilots in the low 2,000 hour range no TPIC and no degree. The pilot shortage in the states is only getting worse. I predict we will be hiring 1500 pilots with next 18 to 24 months line they currently are at the LCC’s.
