Thanks Tim. I think commuting and sitting reserve for a regional would would totally suck. I don't even know if it would build time very fast if I were sitting reserve either. There are a couple of jobs like this and another one where I would probably be able to build flight time pretty quick and still work military reserves (which is where the money would be compared to these jobs, but doesn't build much time at .8 hours per sortie).
I really do think that NetJets would be the type of place for me, I just hope that they are still hiring when I get the mins and that if they are they like me. It sounds as though they are getting very picky with having so many applicants, but that is how it works when everyone (or a lot of people anyway) want to work for you.
