I'd do this 3, maybe 4 years tops...The way I see it, getting paid $19 per hour flying a turbopro is better than getting paid $16 per hour instructing in a 172 to build time... But I am in no way commiting to Gulfstream, considering I havent even interviewed. If I dont get the offer, it was a good experience considering I've never done an airline interview before. If I do get the offer, it's definitely something to think about, but definitely not jumping through any hoops yet.

What are your times? They called me with 350/110. Quite low, but I figured "why not." I haven't returned the call yet to set anything up, still debating that at the moment.

Wait you mean flying a turbo prop with no autopilot 8 legs a day in Montana isn't glamorous?

More hours, not sitting around a crappy crash pad. I know what I am getting into and I choose to enjoy the journey, every poor minute. If you ask me, which no one did, it's an exciting time to be in aviation.

Well, I'm looking forward to this too. Anybody know what the most junior base is and how many slots are open? I'm still gonna bid for Florida first day in class.

I'm bidding FL too, lol. Easy commute. I have a copy of the pilot contract in case anyone has any questions before going. Nothing about the training bond inside however. It's to big to scan in so if you have something specific I can try and look it up.
