Most of my PIC time is in barons. So as I understand it if I don't have at least 500 PIC turbine then I am not qualified to apply? Or is that only preferred? Am I analyzing it wrong? I have over 2K hours turbojet time but its all SIC.
not sure if the new system will prevent you from actually applying, but the hiring minimums include at least 500 hrs PIC turbine as you quoted. Baron time doesn’t count unfortunately.
