Hey all, just a couple questions about hiring, whenever Horizon's hiring actually picks up again outside their PDP.

I'm a Marine Corps V-22 pilot with a little over 2 years left on active duty. I'm on flying orders through April 2024, but after that it's far from guaranteed that I stay flying. I currently have around 610 hours total time, of which about 66 is actual FAR 1.1 PIC (8 at night and 50 cross country) and about 157 is that plus FAR 61.51 flavors of PIC (27 at night, 101 cross country).

I know the various regional airlines around the United States, and even individual logbook reviewers vary in their interpretation of PIC. I know personally someone who got essentially laughed out of the interview at Republic but was then hired by Skywest right away.

What's the standard at Horizon? If I luck out and get T-6 or T-44 instructor pilot as my next set of orders, all of this is irrelevant since I'll well exceed all the PIC requirements by the strictest (FAR 1.1) definition. But if I don't, I need to start crunching numbers ($$$) on how much I need to fly on the side to meet R-ATP mins by the time I'm transitioning out of the military.
