How'd you get a gig flying Lear 45s with so little time? And can I have your old job???
A little bit of luck and a lot of nepotism (sp?). That, and a very lenient insurance policy. There wasn't a time requirement, just that I went to Flight Safety with the crew. Then I flew part time for about 18 months while I worked full time at a jail. I worked 12 hour shifts so I got 15 days off a month, it worked out well for every one. When I went to Flight Safety the other FO was "supposed" to get a job at CO. Well, since that never panned out, I decided to hit the regionals instead of staying corporate. Now it looks like the other FO has decided to stay.

I am just super thankful I got the chance I did. I hope I can be in the position to do it for some other young kid one day (or old guy like me, 31).
