with your times, you shouldn't have any problems getting a call back for an interview! When I interviewed, they were more concerned if I was currently flying.(twin or not)

which regional?

Good points/questions. I'll certainly have my reasons well explained.

I guess after Sept 11th it seemed like a good time to think about switching careers for awhile...Now that I'm a bit more financially stable and was able to go back to get my MBA, I'm wondering why I might want to go back to flying full time!

I was in the 1900 with Commutair.

Who are you flying for and do you like it? PM Me if you want.

There are plenty of people who are multi-current out there looking for jobs.

Actually, I did rent a half hour in a seminole to get current before the interview. Besides that, i hadn't flown one in 3 years prior to the interview. All my instruction was in singles. I guess they were impressed in my other qualifications since I got hired even though my multi wasnt up to par.
