Hey Clint!

Thanks for the intro! What do you do, exactly, for Lufthansa? I think they do both cargo and passenger out of ATL, right? I see that A340 on ramp 5 in the afternoons--cool plane!

Sounds like you're in a good position to dive right into this career. You're still young, you'll have your degree out of the way, and you're already familiar with the whole "airline thing." With your interest in overseas flying, I think you'll find a lot more options than those wishing to stay domestic. Atlanta is definitely a good place to be!

Will you be doing all your training in Atlanta? Do you have any flight time? Are you going to try and live at home?

As you probably already understand, the first step towards the "big boys" is usually at a regional. ASA would be the obvious choice. These days, it's hard to tell exactly what's going to happen as far as growth is concerned. I think we'll definitely have a better idea come fall and spring.

Please let me know if you have any questions! Welcome to the forums!
