this is a weird question because it all varies. it might take some 1 year and it might take another person 10. I interviewed with them last month and was put into their pool. I start flight training in April 2003. So i guess it took me 2.5 years. I instructed for about a year and a half. and I am currently with another 121 regional. good luck, just enjoy instructing, I dont want to say take the first regional job that comes your way, but take the first regional job that you wouldnt mind working for. If its Lakes or Colgan you can get on possibly before 1000 hours. and then once you hit a grand, you can apply to skywest. From what i hear and my own personal experience its rather difficult to get on with skywest w/o prior turbine or 121 experience, especially if you dont know anyone on the inside.

as far as XJT goes, i think they just have a minimum requirement for actual. and as long as you have that you are good to go. I cant imagine it being treated too much differently than the TT requirement.
