Default RTP to PSA, old helo guy

Hello all

54 years old, flying helos for 30 years. Offshore oil and gas in the dump due to low oil prices with no end in sight. Seriously considering taking advantage of RTP. 10 years flying left so probably won't make the majors so regional captain until retirement. Single, kiddos all grown up so don't care about schedule, days off etc.

From: CRJ 900, Captain
Default Hello

Hi everyone. I am a CRJ 900 Captain at Mesa Air Group. I am 32 years old. I got hired at Mesa a little over 11 years ago. Wow I was 21 years old, time flies! I recently went to my second interview at Spirit Airlines. I did an interview prep this time and had 4 internal recommendations. 2 of which were my co pilots a few years ago. I just got the thanks but no thanks today and I am litterally crushed. My first interview with Spirit was in September and I did not have a four year degree but was working on it. I finished my four year at the end of May and went to the second Spirit interview July 7th. I am on here in hopes of finding anything to help me get on with any major now. I have almost 9,000 total time and have been told by a recruiter at Jet Blue I have too much flight time. I feel as though I am in a rut I will never be able to get out of. I am looking forward to learning what I need to do to help me further my career.
