pt. 91K PIC (same as 135)
you can count up to 500 hours of mil PIC in a multi engine, multi crew, fixed wing AC
second thought, SKW is currently not letting FOs switch seats with any regularity. look at all the CRJ FOs in SLC who are not being let onto the 175 as new hires get the base. when you were hired you have a 2 year seat lock and if you switch airplanes that would incur another 1 year seat lock before you can upgrade, assuming they even let you change planes.
My understanding is that seat lock does not apply to upgrades either to the same equipment or switching. This is based on multiple sources I’ve talked to but can’t find the written reference so I may be wrong.
