There is always someone with a story of a person they know who has "beat the odds' and gotten a job when most others would be excluded. If you are looking for a definitive answer - there isn't one.

Your buddy who just got a job flying P180s with a fractional.......I'm surprised. Isn't Avantair the only fractional in the US flying P180s? With what I have been reading on these boards about how hard it is to get a job there, I'm be very surprised.

Also - is this the same budy who had the felony mentioned in your first post or is this another buddy with a felony conviction?
