OK, I would do the PACE program if I were you, and you wanted a fast route to a regional.
I am in my Multi semester and am in a 75% PACE multi groundschool. The only difference between the PACE and ab graduates is a degree and your initial training. Whether or not you have a multi rating or not you MUST go through the MAPD multi ground. The class is very in depth and taught this semester by a highly expierienced(sp?) airline captain. We also receive an in depth IFR refresher course, as well as an exceedingly in depth ground school on the cl 65(which 95% of grads are going to ) after you finish crj ground, multi ground , multi flying and learn the MESA GOM/CRM you go to 40 hours of cl 65 simulation. Basically you fly the line for a week with a mesa captain. THEN you get to interview, and pass a 50 question ATP written test before you interview, i do not believe people on the street do this.

I'm not sure that many PACE people are getting dropped, a lot of the failures to get hired are blamed on attempted concealments on criminal/drving records, and bad attitude.

Hope this helps.

Or- Your D**KS**king skills isn't up to MESA pilot standards. The pilot group at MAG has demonstrated to the industry their ability to Blow the Hebrew at the helm of this POS for many years. Go ahead and join up. The Coc#suckers are allways looking for another idiot like themselves. No jumpseat on my command, go buy a ticket or take the Grayhound. The bus terminal will prepare you for MAG's Indoc and Corporate culture.

The $15/hour wasn't bad at the beginning because it added up..

I'm *pretty sure* he was talking about flying the line. I sure hope he wasn't complaining about working as a CFI...$26,000 - $32,000/yr ain't bad...if he was complaining about that just wait till he gets to any regional :)

((7)) - Grow up. You should not be flying.
Remember the real reasons why airlines are goining bankrupt.

What kind of multi-training, what aircraft?
Isn't there a sim for that plane and what is the quality like?

Regardless of if you have a multi or not, you must go through the ground school for the multi and complete training (Option A people have their multi already, option B people do not) in the Baron Frasca 242 Sim and Baron B-58 airplane.

Honestly, you would not make it successfully thru the program - you must be able to think on your own (seriously). Stop looking for handouts and call them for pete's sake...

Students receive their Commercial multi-engine training in this six-seat twin engine aircraft which features state-of-the art navigational equipment. The aircraft has a maximum range of 1575 nautical miles and a cruising speed of almost 200 knots. The Barons are equipped with color weather radar and full de-icing equipment.

nice!
 
CFI Pay

That's decent money for flight instructing. Not as good as the foreign airline academies, though, and still better than first-year FO pay anywhere.
 
Handouts

That what he's been doing for over a week; first, by posting about P-F-T and hoping for positive validation and, now, posting on pay-for-interview and hoping for the same thing.

P-F-T and pay-for-interview are forms of handouts, intended to circumvent the ordinary airline hiring process.

I went there. Graduated in 2000 and went into the Dash-8 with 273 total time.

Rojo, have you only gained 600 hours since getting hired in 2000?? Your profile says 900 hours, and that'd be only like 150 hours a year?? Are you not flying much, furloughed, or whats the deal??
 
He stated a few pages back (I believe, maybe another thread, to lazy to look :)) that he quit a few months after going to Mesa to persue greener pastures...

I guess where I was going with it is that he continuously posts questions on here that are easilyanswered by looking at a website or by calling, his questions seem rather un-informed, and it struck a nerve I guess...
