thank you & question
yes, I agree - it is tough - and I am seeking an FBO ish job where I can get some recurrent training on a King Air & Pilatus and be a generally useful local stand by person for such an animal
that is proving to be hard too - though I think (my theory) is that as soon as their is any movement into Jazz / Porter / Air Canada, etc. that should free up some spots in biz aviation
question: is it really bad form to pay for your own 737 / Airbus or even Q400 type rating? (with my day job it is an easy way to add to the resume and also keep my head in the game, though I also hear it is frowned on... any feedback on that would be much appreciated)
