UhOh! Sompin' ain't right. I was always told that 75% of achieving your goals was having lots of money to burn through.

Maintain those contacts, but first things first.
Good luck,and

From the cut and paste post above yours, I think he will need more like 1000 Turbine PIC just to be able to apply, let alone be competitive.

UPS has most recently required overwater experience due to the rapid expansion in ANC (rumot is the FAA thought it was a good idea).

It wasn't part of the current window, though.

That said, I would think overwater time will always be a trump card from here on out. I would think it will get you noticed. I have a friend at Mesa who is a Dash Capt with the 1000 TPIC looking to get noticed at UPS. I suggest Kallita.
