Echoing what he said....It wasn't even ten years ago when 2500TT was required to even apply to most commuter jobs. There were plenty of applicants back then with those mins and we always found a way to fly. I get so tired of those that cry about no way of building any time without paying for it. Just beat the bushed and you will find flying, it might take a while (for the microwave generation) but you will find it. I see nothing wrong with 1200/200 being a min.
