I know this is more difficult now with part 117 but I was able to get turbine PIC when I couldn't upgrade by finding a part time job in a turboprop on my days off. I know that's a major sacrifice but just something to consider. Otherwise how about sim instructing at your airline or volunteering for a union safety committee or helping out on the company side of things? I understand these things aren't always possible in every company and situation, just some thoughts.
