Default Question about ATP-CTP

How many hours will you be able to log in the FFS? I currently have 41.2 hours of multi, but would like to not have to spend more money if I will be able to log the rest of it in the sim for my unrestricted.

Does anyone have information on flow control to either Delta, United or Alaska? I'm a reservist C-17 co-pilot sitting at 1400 TT, so I'll need to make a stop at a regional for a bit to gain some 121 experience, type certificate, and ATP. Will any of those companies pass my application over becuase of being with SkyWest?
Thanks

Mil experience might get you VFR direct to a legacy.

But I wouldn't wait around too long, take a second tier job and your phone should start to ring once you're out of the metering conga line.

YES - ALL will! With your experience even in this recent envoirenment you shouldn't have much of a problem going Direct. If you would like to build more time/121 do it Elsewhere! There are so many other viable options out there, why shoot yourself in 3 feet?!! I honestly think you are asking a question that you already know the answer too. Good Luck and Thanks for ur Service!

Probably should have made that post a bit more clear. I'm at 680 muti-engine turbine time and the 750 is my civilian ratings along with some instructor time. I've had my apps into Delta and Alaska for a bit now with no call. I'm assuming its the low ME turbine time thats doing it.

Definitely keep your apps updated, but you're right...you need to get some experience under your belt and if I understood your first post correctly, you'll need to get your CTP and Unrestricted ATP as well before the big dawgs will look at you. Two routes: regionals (as you're doing) or use your GI Bill to knock out our CTP and ATP...and try to get as much turbine time as possible through other means.

Personally, a pit stop at the Regionals would be a sure-fire way for you to get there. I would take the first regional airline with the soonest class date, assuming you have some flexibility to move or commute. That will take quickly care of your CTP and ATP and once you've passed a 121 trainign program and get a few 121 hours under your belt, assuming hiring continues you'll be a strong candidate for moving up.

Have they been professionally reviewed?
