I just put my app in hoping for a Sept or Oct class because I have committed flying this season. I just turned 58 so this is my first and only shot at finishing my career 121. I'm too old to sit reserve in a crash pad so I'm willing to move. Live in Dallas so that would be ok, would love to move back to Florida so that would work and I'm from Chicago and our families are there. Even Cleveland is back in Midwest so we would make it work.
That is an endearing story. However, you seem a little tone deaf for a older fella that has real world experience. You may want to educate yourself as to what is going on at F9 regarding contract negotiations and how your choices effect the careers of current F9 pilots.
