I never have been able to figure out how the regionals get away with putting low time people in jets. Wouldn't their insurance provider have a say in that? The cessna 310 I flew corporate in in college required 750 hours for the insurance and the king air 200 I fly now required 2500 to be pic. Working for the regionals sucks. Don't be in too big of a hurry to get there. I quit one of the best regionals for the king air job and I don't miss it at all. Well I do miss being able to fly for free but that's about it. It doesn't take that long to develope your flying skills. I'm only 24 and I have nearly 3000 hours, 2100 of which were prior to going to rah. In the year and a half I was there I only flew about 700 hours. One month on rsv I didn't fly at all. The flying is definitely routine and boring. It doesn't develop you as a pilot like flight instructing or charter or freight etc. You should learn how to fly on your own before you get into an airplane that is meant for two good pilots. You will also earn a lot more respect from the captains that you fly with if you come from an experienced background.
