(There certainly are things we can get away with in a turboprop that you can't in a turbojet, so I can see why they'd focus on jets only) And can someone who had used mil leave tell me a bit about the process? Likes and gripes.

Much appreciated.
Pretty sure you will get it, the guidance is type rating pic/sic on a aircraft 12,500 pounds or greater. I'm not military but I know that Skywest is very military friendly with regards to ppl needing leave.
