I have pretty much come to a fork in the road as far as my career goes, and I need some advice.
First of all, let me say that my goal is SWA.
I have been flying a King Air 90 single pilot 135 for the past 2 years. I have close to 500 PIC in it. I just got hired into a Westwind II, SIC to start, under Part 91, but should be typed within a year. (The company averages 20-30 hours a month). I AM still able to fly the King Air on my days off.
On the other hand, I have a few resumes out to the Regionals, one of which is CoEx (Express Jet), and passed the telephone interview. They said to expect a call in 60-90 days (which was about 3-4 weeks ago). This was all before I got the call to fly the Westwind.
I know that upgrade is going to be a while at CoEx. So should I stick with what I have, or should I pursue the 121 thing? Does it matter to Southwest?
Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions.
