I'm assuming you’re referring to the Cessna types. Right now I feel like I need more flight time to find/qualify for the (hopefully) last job I would need. So the airlines work great at time building compared to 200hrs a year flying 91 although I would love to end up doing something like that or if it was an option to do some of that on the side when available.

I just want to get the ATP and the type is a really nice bonus if I can get it paid for through this program.

One other difference between the programs is that I believe the training for the 500/525 is done in the aircraft so I would actually have a little time in type where the others would just be the type..
