I was at Silver Airways and got hired at United about 5 years ago. Though, to be fair, I had prior 121 experience and was hired as a captain off the street. Part 121 turbine time is Part 121 turbine time. Don’t fall for the “it has to be a jet” mentality. That’s BS. The new ATRs they’re getting are just as advanced as any jet out there. And a turboprop is much more challenging to fly than a jet.
