Just to clarify...
Getting into Regionals is a different can of worms. Minimum requirements is probably ATPL licence, so you have the IF time, night and twin hours, etc.
Hasn't been true for Qlink since well before 2008.
East Coast ones all have cadet schemes, so you are over qualified unless you just have a PPL.
Not true at all for Qlink. Doubt it's true for VARA.
(Moot point for Qlink, however, atm)
DIVOSH!
