Probably somewhere in the neighborhood of 3-4 years.

Try this - base your decision on a company that fits your needs and where you won't have to commute. Do NOT base your decision on upgrade times because those change quickly. What's a quick upgrade today because glacial tomorrow.

You entering aviation at a really crappy time. If you're incapable of making a decision based on your needs, then take the FIRST job offered and build seniority.

HMM

Tell me about it. I got a call for an interview but living off 18K/year is horrific. I was considering putting up with it if their was a quick upgrade time but sounds like not. Thx.

With only 800 hrs you can't be too picky though, youwon't get many options.

Im just now starting to get where some will look at my resume. I may end up staying here until I get my 135 mins and then a lot more opportunities will open up. Im thinking freight dog and then maybe charter/corporate who knows. Hopefully the industry will turn around within my carer.
