I know for a fact that SKYW has interviewed guys with your qualifications & background. I myself, interviewed with two F16 pilots when I got hired several years ago, and I know SKYW hasn't changed the minimums. Also flown, with new hires with 2000 hours or less.

One of the biggest mistakes I made when I got of the out of the Navy was not getting a guard job. The opportunities are so much better from the Air Force side. It takes a little time, but you can convert you gold wings into lead wings. Find a guard unit near where you'd like to live and rush them like you would the top fraternity. I suggest the guard job so you will always have a back up when/if times are tough. It'll also give you some breathing room for finding a job.

Your flight time looks great for most regionals. The published flight times are always open to exceptions. I've been involved in the hiring process at a regional and I can tell you that I was looking for some sort of quality assurance on the resume that you can succeed in training, show up for work on time and operate within the limits of the aircraft and our company's procedures. Assuming you haven't lost your wings or been FNAB'd, I'd say you meet that criteria.

Good luck and enjoy that last month of flying in the training command. You will miss it!!
