Your thoughts?
You'd likely be considered for a First Officer position with those times but upgrades are relatively quick if you're competent and you stay off the s?!t list. They recently hired a lady to sort through the initial pilot applications so be patient . They frequently advertise on the orange site so I'd apply through there. Better still, if you personally know a Gama pilot you could ask him / her to recommend you.
There is talk of a new compensation package being introduced later this month too.
Good luck.
