It is for some companies that run a smaller plane like a C-172. It also just depends on who's available and most the time companies elect to go with higher time people with AK time. It varies though on the person and their ambition. In my neck of the woods spring and fall are good times as the rivers start to break up in spring and freeze up in fall as travel because air dependent.
