That's just my take. All my TPIC is in a prop as well as 5000+ SIC. I did have jet (steam gauges) and FE time also. They may be looking at more rounded resumes or may just want to know you can learn a new aircraft after spending so much time in a prop. Hard to say.
I think your probably right. Turbo-prop is Turbo-prop. I think according to Pilotcredentials they're all the same.
I fly a turbo-prop that's as big as most RJ's. It's all glass, FMS, EFB's and HGS. But it's still a turbo-prop. It goes in the turbo-prop box.
Maybe I'll start counting the APU as jet time.
