With all due respect, with 520hrsTT all you are concern is about upgrade? Sure we all want to become CA's at some point. Check Mesa out. They are looking for street CA's.

Think i would go to pinnacle if i were you. I work for eagle, and the upgrade time is gonna be minimum 4-5 best case, worst case is that things go to hell when we get sold and we lose the AA feed.

This thread pretty much sums it up. He was high time looking for a quick upgrade as well.

Well yes I am but man the market out there for jobs is pretty tight. I want to fly again and like right now. I mean I have 5200 hrs TT time with 1023 PIC B757 time and the offers aren't pouring in.

I think I might be able to upgrade pretty fast at a regional like pinnacle....and that might help with the bills untill this market settles out again.

Are you guys at pinnacle sure there isn't a training contract?

What is this written test like at pinnacle.

Oh and also at eagle I was told that the chief pilot/training is fast tracking guys like us with high time. I was also told they are waiving the simulator check at the interview for me. Just interview and get a class if the panel like you.
