I've got family 45 min from BOS and MCO. Gotta love not commuting.

If 5K is indeed a more competitve number, the good news is most of that time for me will be spent in the left seat of a CRJ.

I'm in the same exact situation. Just crossed 4,000TT, but unfortunately the OBAP career fair is the same week as my CA upgrade training.

I've got 5500 TT, 5000SIC, no upgrade yet at my stagnant regional. 8 years in....I have several ties, high GPA, spoke with them at WAI, they said: without a blue dart, no dice.... unless I'm a girl....which I'm not such as discriminatory industry.

such as discriminatory industry.I had a interview with 4500TT, 3200 SIC and 1200 PIC (all piston), 4yr degree and High GPA. I spoke to them at Sun n Fun.
Unfortunately I got the TNT letter yesterday. I'll reaply in the next window (hopefully will be in about 6 month or so)

You must have 1,000 PIC. (Not turbine, just straight PIC.) A guy who got hired at a regional with 500 hours won't have that.
