Yeah no doubt. I have no complaints to be honest. I know TPIC opens doors in the future, but it is what is. Heavy international SIC time (after seatlock), should open a couple doors too. And then of course the new contract could actually be pretty decent and then no doors would need to be openned. So patience haha.

Yes it does, it’s how many of us ended up at UPS/FedEx.

It doesn’t if you lack turbine PIC. But it does open doors if you have PIC time with that experience as well.

Yes. That’s what I should have said. If one lacks PIC and one chooses Atlas to build time, then one has made a mistake.

No TPIC here. But this job was life saving right pre-covid. I agree 100% tho, my career progression sucks big time

Didn’t you have like less than 2000 hours total time when you got hired? If I were you, I’d maybe not complain so much about having a stable 737 job that became much more in demand in a covid world.

I still can talk about career progression and future.
