Tarmach,
Do you mean if you just apply with 250 hours and hope, or if you build up the 1000 hours like we were discussing? If it's the first one, I gather from this forum that a realistic estimate would be about 2 years. That means going back to your boring old job while you send off several hundred letters to airlines. I have no intention of going back to my ****ty job once I've left which is why I'm hoping to become an instructor in the interim. I doubt I'll even bother applying straight out of training. It'll just get me down when they ignore me,
TB
