Brad, with SWA when your an FO do you just pair up with a CPT and fly whatever he/she flies? And SdntPlt, i am graduating HS next year
(FINALLY) and going right away to University of North Dakota to earn all my hours, certifications, etc. But what i want to say to you is,
Embry Riddle is harder to enter into than whatever FAA regulation you have, (the thing with those airliner trainer acadamies is this
they
tell you that they can put you in the right seat of a CRj within a year becuase you can earn certification that early, but most Airliners wont
hire people with that, its frowned upon as far as i have been told.
