Houston pilot accepting job offers!

[BengalsFan]

Apply for the Dallas ANG (C-130s), or I think San Antonio has a C-5 reserve unit, and I believe Houston's fighter unit is converting to UAV (predator's)... the only one I know about for sure is the Dallas herc's... you can fly part time and be with your wife... or you could go to the Barksdale (Shrevport, La) and do reserve A-10s or B-52s. Just options if you like to fly, but your wife makes enough to support you... you could have the best life in the world... be a reservist/guardsman, be a stay at home dad, fly part time and have a sugar momma!

I sent them my resume and didn't hear anything. I'm starting to think maybe the airlines aren't for me...

LOL......at this point you don't know what's for you. This industry is built for strong men and women if you have been conditioned for the good life this IS NOT for you so don't bother taking a senority number anywhere

I didn't mean I wouldn't like them. I've been doing some part time semi-corporate stuff and I really like it. I'm one of those guys that believes everything happens for a reason. I guess it came out wrong. And just because I'm ready to move up doesn't mean I don't like instructing and don't like flying. Instructing is still better than doing any other non-flying job I can think of...

Don't you have to go to OCS?

 

[BengalsFan]

yes you do (well a fake reserve/guard version of it anyways), if they want to hire you, they will send you to OCS and then send you to flight school and then to the FTU (about a 2 year process)... assuming you already have a college degree.

I just have an associates dergree so, no I don't have a "real" degree. Being prior service, I do know that there is a waiver for anything...

 

[BengalsFan]

don't know about that one... you'd have to ask them... sorry

 

[Pico16fly]

Sorry, no waiver for a B.A. for the military unless you want to join the Army. Oh and BengalFan, the OTS is the same for both Active duty and Reserve, Guard has the "fake" one, but only for non rated officers. How is Korea! As far as I remember ROTC has the fake short one in the summer Later

 

[BengalsFan]

Ahhh Pico... I miss you so!

Korea is fine... and I'm almost home. You'd better make the effort to see me when you fly out to Travis!

Man look at all those type ratings... is your goal to obtain the most type ratings, or to make some money one of these days?

By the way, did you get a job?

I'll call you when I get back to the states.

500 TT now. Yeah buddy. Look out senior captains at FedEx...
