Hi,

I just registered with APC, because I was looking for some answers in regards to the Etihad application. Upon reviewing the threads about Etihad, it looks like I don't even have a chance based upon my qualifications. I was just looking to get some opinions about what my chances are flying overseas with the qualifications that I have.

Currently I am a EMB-145 Captain, I have about 5400 hours of total time, a lot of that in Cessnas and other piston airplanes. Total jet time is around 2500 or so, with the last 400 or so as a Captain. I am typed on the EMB-145. I also have about 2900 PIC in pistons both single and mutli.

I was just wondering if any of you pilots out there had some thoughts on where I might look for future job opportunities. I am about to get bumped back to the right seat thanks to a reduction in my company's flying so I am looking at gaining a bunch more SIC time on the EMB-154 which probably is worthless.

So again, if anyone has some suggestions on where to look or what I might be thinking at this point as far as where to go next, I'd sure appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,
EY
