From what I have seen, read and heard I like express jet the most out of all of them so far. Yes I am worried about the upgrade time but that's a risk I'm willing to take. As for PIC time, if I'm going to be given a PIC type rating and if the CA and FO switch roles each leg wouldn't the FO also be able to log PIC then?
Per the FAR, yes. But none of the major airlines count that when applying.
