Remember, there are no duty/flight time limits in the 91 world.
Are you having problems finding work as a SIC under 135 with less than 500 hours? 500 hours is the minimum time for a VFR captain.
If you're willing to relocate try applying to Mokulele Airlines in Hawaii, they'll take you with 250.
Yes, the places I have applied to or have inquired to all have said 500hrs is their min requirement or they have not responded. Seaport is the only one I have not been able to finish the application and send it in yet due to I am still waiting for my letter of recommendation from the person I asked to write it. I would love to fly with them as I have read nothing but good things from both pilots and passengers.
I'm currently flying Cessna 206's at a local drop zone on the weekend. However, it not a paid job, just time building. It's keeping me current, which before it I hadn't flown in 4 months, so I can't really complain, but I have been in between paying jobs since June, so I need to find some job that will pay.
I have added 100hours since June, all of which is in the 206. But even drop zones that need people and fly 206's said they need 500hrs min.
I have experience in warbirds as well, so I have a broad base of flight experience. I'm at 359hrs currently
