All that said, I understand the need for turbine PIC time. This might be a silly question, but will they consider Twin Otter as adequate for twin-turbine PIC time? I would like to work for a Regional, but I am exploring all avenues. Thanks.
If you want an SO spot than just Twotter time is fine.....if you want a DEFO spot, my guess is solely RJ time isn't gonna cut it until the industry is in full swing again. This company likes big airplane pilots so if you can get on at any company with big planes yur chances are better.
