Yes, I had no 121 experience and I was low time.
But I wasn't a fresh new commercial rated pilot.
Had been in the 135 environment for over 2 years when I
was picked up by
PSA
And you're right. No one can teach you 121 really, but your
experience will come into play when your demanded to
be on time, work your way around a very busy ramp, do radios,
keep FARs in consideration, and make sure you don't kill 50 people.
I just started IOE and I'm def. noticing what some idiots on this board were talking about.
But, I'm 20....young enough to still learn and pick it up
fast
1200hrs is for PIC
There's is no requirement asking for so much PIC time at the places you can go

I used to be what you call a "gear swinger"
