When looking up RTP programs it seems like most have a 500+ TT hour requirement. Does anyone else here have any experience/advise for looking into RTPs right after flight school considering I'll have roughly 180-200 hours of rotor time only?
I have a pilot in my unit who completed flight school and was hired by GoJets with just flight school. They're paying for all her ratings and time building.
And you won't come back with 180-200 hours - it'll be about 130.
As others said, do not do FW training during flight school. Not only will you not have time, it's not permitted.
