I flew the 99 for Alpine Air as PIC for around 1500 hrs and now I got hired by NetJets. I'm not sure and I doubt that, that PIC time is competitive vs 121 RJ people. The Facs seem to honor it but its not one of thier mins. I have apps at majors but like I said I dont think it looks as good as PIC 121. But its all who you know. The 99 is a fun and reliable bird and 135 night cargo puts hair on your chest. Not to mention the pay cant be beat. At Alpine last year I made around 55K with no uniform and not shaving.
