No. Since the FO positions (other than the E120) are there to get low time pilots to IFR 135 mins, we want you flying full time to get there ASAP to get you ready to be a captain.

Again, while the VFR positions are captain, they are also to get you to IFR mins as soon as possible. In addition, there are only two bases where VFR captains are really useful; PHX and ABQ.

Finally, if you don't have 135 IFR mins yet, once you get there, you would likely go to a BE99 or PA31 and currently home basing is only for type rated aircraft.
