At the end of the day, I would have to pay my own way to LAS (funds are low) to interview. Pay for training...which I have whole-heartedly preached against since I was a little 'ol CFI, and I would have to move to AEX or GFT to make $25k on the 737. Morally it is wrong, and financially, I can't make it make any sense.
No thanks.
Pay for training? Do you mean in order to get current again? Vision does not make you pay for training. 737 FO pay was quoted at around $40K to start (when I interviewed).
