The unemployment office in your state of residence will have the information you need as I believe the funds are allocated through the respective state unemployment offices. Set up a meeting if you can with a "case worker" at your local unemployment or jobs office and they can hook you up. You'll be required to attend some seminars on resume writing and interviewing, etc. but just grin and bear it. Be careful how you describe your career. The money in the WIA will be paid only toward what they call "growth" industries so under no circumstances mention you need the money as an airline pilot. In other words, show them your COMMERCIAL PILOT certificate and tell them you are looking for training in COMMERCIAL AVIATION, not "airline." This is key.

Now....forget Comair. Run along and go get your CE550 types......you're welcome!
