I aknowledge that i have low time and hence why im reluctant to apply, but in the end i want to reach the same goals u have reached and feed my family. So if an airline would except my 200 hrs less of of total time for 160 more ME time than is required that would be great. Besides 121 training will be the true test of ability and if i washed out i learn and move on (i'm not planning on washing out)
Sounds like you are masking your Quality time in search of that short cut to the airlines. If you are truly interested in Quality time you will get a CFI job then work 135. It will make you a better Captain and F/O. It will also give you the experience needed to know when to fly and when to wave a white flag.
You can buy flight time but you can't buy experience and integrity. Earn it and then you can come here in 5 years and slam those that just want to buy a job.
