I'm still in college now anyway, so can't go anywhere fast unless i finish that. Getting hired right now by the regionals, live on soup for 4 years, might be ok for me....
Wow buddy... Hopefully you will get it soon. By all means, finish college (flew with a captain not long ago who couldn't move on because he was still trying to get his degree done, its tough to do on the road). Sitting 4 years in the right seat at a crappy regional plus another year or 2 to get some decent PIC time then more time waiting for that major to call? I think I'd rather shoot myself in the face.
