Ok, so I'm not there yet, but by the time I graduate college I'll have 300-350 hours, my ppl, Commercial, and my multi instrument rating with an option for CFI (not sure if I want that or not... thus this question)
for those of you in the airlines flying towards their dream or already flying their dream, what route did you take (if civilian) after getting most of your ratings? Did you get your CFI or do something else, and what was that? Obviously you did something to build hours.... how did you build yours? Should I look into loans for one of those academys that get you your ATP? and bypass the instruction, cargo, etc...
I honestly wouldn't mind avoiding being an instructor, but I'd do it if I need to. (kinda scares me to have someone's training in my hands!) I'm not there yet still working on some of my ratings, but just looking ahead.
