Default RTP

For those of you who have been through coast, how many hours a day were you able to build? Are you able to fly seven days a week? Is it possible to fly 8 hours a day, seven days a week?

Sounds like that would be some quality time.....why not just pencil whip your book and be done with it.

From what I've heard through a couple friends that are currently there is they are flying 3-4 times per week and each timebuilding flight lasts about 6 hours.

Thank you. Seems kind of crazy to not work at all and only fly 3X a week. I fly well over that now in a more high stress cockpit.

There's a training plan for each individual. Expect approximately 19 weeks if entering the program with zero (0) fixed-wing PIC.

Hey guys, a lot of us Army rotor dudes got together on facebook and decided it would be prudent to put together a website/forum specifically for us. It launched yesterday. We'd love if you guys who have made the jump could post up in there and offer any advice you've got, and for those about to make the leap, there's plenty of places you can contribute as well. We want it to be a single-point resource for RTP, regardless of intended airline.

Thanks and good luck with the transition.

Default Time building

I was kinda hoping the same thing for time building. I’d like to be in and out of San Marcos within 90 days.
