You do make a good point about viability. I would suggest he check into GoJet contracts and see how long until they expire.
It wasn't advice on how to get to a major. It was advice that things aren't as black and white as often they are presented here.
Flight time does count, but 1000TPIC is not a trigger when you suddenly start getting calls. His hours are rotary, and looking at the RTP guys I know, those hours aren't the same as FW hours when trying to get hired elsewhere.
I would value AQP and stability quite a bit over a 6 month perceived head start. That's just my personal valuation though. YMMV.
