Don't come back. Now that's smart advice.

Actually probably the worst advice. This guy has done both fly, and work in the "real world" so he knows exactly what he is in for.
I would never want to do anything different. Things are going to get much, much better for us in the next few years.

Check out www.xojet.com

They are hiring big time and they have 50 jets on firm order on the way (mix of Citation Xs and Challenger 300s) with more on option. Not sure where you would live (which domicile would apply). Check out the numerous threads on the fractional and charter forums. I know a bunch of former Indy pilots were hired by XOJet soon after Indy shut down.

Check it out.

You have NO idea how RIGHT you are!! Unless you absolutely have to, dont quit flying. If money is the issue get yourself something to generate money ona side. (Monavi drink or any network type of income) or get a Real Estate License and sell 2 houses a year (around 12K extra). Money isn't everything.I'm leaving a 98K job to fly RJs for $20 hr so I can make it to JB or something for maybe $50K.. man I think i'm really stupid...oh well stupid feels good!!!

Waking up and looking forward to going to work is priceless. Congrats, and good luck on whatever you decide. If it makes any difference to you Eagle lets you choose your own base, so if you came here you could choose MIA as a base.

not that it'll make any difference at this point but, is MIA an ATR or ERJ base or both?? what A/C would I most likely be hired into?? no problems with my time away issue??
Thanks brother!!

It is only an ATR base.

siucavflight, I'm not getting recalled!! Independence Air went belly up 2 some odd years agver

So what are their hiring minimums? Where are new pilots based at, and are they hiring street CPT? Do you need an ATP to get hired into the A380's or does everyone start on the 74's?
