ol mate chief wiggum, you`ve been eating too many doughnuts... i did the fast track course, got to cpl in about 4 months, did mecir after that and now fly Rpt as an F/o on turboprops, took all of 10 months to get to that point. There is such a thing, it`s not easy but it can be done, for those who are motivated. It`s an excellent way to get into the industry.
