Anyone thinking about working for Boutique needs to read all of the article I'll link. It's really, really, bad. Lots of info on issues other than not having the PDP.

The article clearly states Boutique has a PDP as of March 2022. SIC time is now legal. Any time built prior to March 2022 is not valid. All time from March on is 100% valid. All Captains were given the training prior to it being started and SICs received the training as well.
The article is a poorly written hit piece that even though I may not be a fan of Boutique they don’t deserve. There very well could be an investigation into stuff, but the PDP is 100% legal.
