escobar,
Not sure which company your with but most regional operators out there are desperate for people to fill the left seat. They just cant get enough captains. Eastern being a class example, theyve been advertising in flighglobal for months now but to no avail. The rest are all the same. Hence most of these companies prefer the ex FI guys who have 1000 hours instructing time, theyre quick command potential. Unfreeze the atpl and your laughing.
