We generally have no problem getting low time folks to hire into our SF340 and E120 aircraft. Since our goal is to move those folks into the left seat of our other aircraft, we have no real need to hire someone into the right seat that meets the requirements of a Part 135 IFR Captain. And we generally don't move 340 and 120 first officers directly over to the left seat of those aircraft. So if becoming a 340 Captain is your ultimate goal, you are better off starting in one of our other aircraft AS a captain.
