RATP what should I do
Posted by HearingTrue6782@reddit | flying | View on Reddit | 7 comments
Just met RATP Minimum as a flight instructor, 29 hours multi, CFII, ATM completed, “STEP” “cadet”, Allegiant Cadet. Went to 141 Uni. My flight school is offering a 6 month commitment MEI contract. Should I take the contract, dish money for my atp in a light twin, or build more time for part 135 if regionals don’t reach out.

Take the contract, and then leave anyway if you get a 121 class date before 6 months.

No turbine and 29 multi is going to make you a super long shot for regionals
ATPCTP might help
How many failures? Bachelors?

I have a Bachelors and failed 4 out of the 22 stage checks all in-house

Just keep doing what you're doing. Your rATP might be a full blown ATP by the time you get hired at a 121 operation. Apply everywhere, keep instructing and get in line with everyone else that has similar qualifications.

What part 135 have you been hired at? I'd probably take the contract for MEI and get some multi time. For the most part hiring isn't apply and start within two weeks. It might take 6 months from application to being hired anywhere.

Sorry, had to fix that, no part 135 experience right now.
