Quick PIC Turbine time...

Hey,

Any of you guys know any companies of any kind who are hiring (domestic only) whose realistic upgrade time on a JET currently is 18 months or less?

Also a Los Angeles area base would be a huge plus.

I have:
2500+ TT and over 2000 multi turbine, but no turbine PIC.

Thanks!

Some are hiring off the street captains, but not out of LA.

Big Sky comes to mind...

SAABaroowski:

Thanks for the info. Two yrs is a little too long, plus the uncertainty isn't good if you guys are looking at losing more flying.

KiloAlpha:

Thanks, but Mesa's upgrade on a jet is 3.5+ years right now.

ANYONE ELSE? Perhaps I should mention, I am NOT necessarily looking for a regional airline job, but ANY job (I just posted in this forum to get all your thoughts...I figured someone might have heard something.)

Thanks

Do you happen to know what aircraft they are hiring street CAs for? And what their requirements are? Thanks

Sorry, I'm behind the times... lol .... but who is TSA? I thought those were the guys in the silly outfits that always harass me because I forgot to take the gum wrappers out of my pocket...
