Next move
Multi ATP
4,000 TT
2,200 Multi
800 Turbine 100 EMB145 700 PC12
600 Turbine PIC all PC12
Goal like most- shortest route to the majors.
Opportunities. Single Pilot BE99 (won't make me go broke) or Regional airline (I've saved a lot of money if I needed to do this). What would you do?
The one major requirement I don't have is 1,000 TPIC. Should I give the 99 a shot an get some multi TPIC? or just suck it up and go to a regional? Just looking for opinions, not arguments.

From: Does it matter?
If you want to go to the majors then your probably better off flying at the regionals. Its a route I would hate to advise, there are probably other ways, but I think the 121 guys at the regionals will get the first pickings if/when the "pilot shortage" happens.

Ok, so heres what I got:
ATP - BE1900 type
4800 Total time
3600 Turbine (Turboprop)
2200 PICT /121(Turboprop)
121 Line check airman letter
No glass time
No fms time
No jet time
No autopilot time
My goal, like many, is to work at a legacy carrier. Should I move to another regional and get the glass and jet time, or stick it out where I'm at and continue to build more of the same pic turboprop time until a legacy gets interested in my application?
