If you want to talk "competitive", that's a whole different deal. Like I said, the guys I knew all had an "in" when they got hired. But you at least have to have the mins to fill out the app. After that's it's all on you to get the job.

But 1000 PIC as a min is not high.
It is high when you look at the 8 to 9 year upgrade that I'm looking at. Which is why I'm saying its worth it in some respects to get the left seat as quickly as possible.

Granted I already have 600 PIC, but some places that I've seen want that PIC in turbine aircraft.
