I think they'll hire with less time when needed. They regularly hire with less time, 500 or so total (maybe lower), but start them in the right seat of the caravan. Be prepared to do your own weather checks, verify your own loading of the aircraft, and often loading it and fueling it yourself. Not a big deal with a 207 though. I just can't understand why people take a lot of the jobs they do as pilots. Grow a pair and demand to get paid what you're worth. Sorry, that may seem harsh, but its my attitude.
