I think we have basically established that VFR saratoga and 206 time will not get you to an airline, or be valued by an airline at all. But I'm sure that multi-engine turbine time is valued. I know because I was in an interview at skywest with a guy with twin otter time and he got hired. I'm sure that other pilots in Alaska have pieced this together as well so my question is...
How hard is it to get a multi-engine turbine job in alaska? Flying the 340 for penair for instance?
If I were you, I'd phone PenAir's chief pilot, Brian Carricaburu, at (907)243-2485. He can give you the full run down on applying and on what jobs may be available.
