How many nights per week are you away from home? Currently first officer in a lear 45 for a corporate company, but no where to advance from it and not flying very much.
When did you get the email saying you were added to the hiring pool? I got mine a couple months ago...im just trying to guage when i might be coming up in line for a call?
