Greetings everyone,

I just want to start off by saying that I’ve enjoyed reading the forums in this website since I’ve joined. I’m always very interested and seeing what everyone has to say about the many topics out there. I’ve been trying to be more active and make more posts lately, but since I do not work for a 121, 135 or cargo yet it’s difficult for me to respond to the many posts on this website. However, I’m hoping, and will be very gracious if anyone can help me.

This post might be a little to early yet, but I’m wondering what regional airline or airlines would be a good choice for me to start my career?

I will be starting my final year at the university that I’m attending before I graduate in May. Like the many young individuals that start posting on this site, I’m also majoring in Commercial Aviation. By the time I graduate I will have roughly 420 TT and 110 ME hours. Even though my university just had a hiring workshop for flight instructors, I’m planning on applying and trying to become a CFI at my university in the beginning of January.

Some of the regional airlines that I’ve been looking at to start my career are Great Lakes Airlines, or Skyway Airlines. Those types of carries don’t bother me because I’m really anxious to relocate to any domiciles, and to gain experience in flying turbo props, or regional jets. I’m also planning on getting my restricted radio operators license, and to take my ATP written so I can have that on my resume, since I’m still trying to give it some life.

I know that the airline industry is a very dynamic industry, and can possibly change once again before I graduate, hopefully for the better. Again, I will be happy and very gracious for any advice that is left for me to read.

Thank You,
