Who Is The Best Applicant For Regional?

[Timebuilder]

I wouldn't disagree with you that instructing is an excellent way to build such a foundation, but it is wrong to beleive it is the ONLY way.

Not the ONLY way, I agree.

It is perhaps, the best way.

Very likely, those who take the other routes may not find a way that is anywhere near as effective.

One possible advantage of a GOOD instructor is that since they know the learning process so well, they can apply those skill to airline training. It is difficult to see where fire spotting, jumper hauling or banner towing develops these skills. Not a slam, just an observation.

Also instrument instructor time is VERY valuable, IMNSHO.

It all boils down to quality of training recieved and the overall professionalism and attitude. Unfortuneatly being selected for the interview in the first place steers more towards quantity, not nessicarlily quality.
