Same boat as well. Our school trains mainly career orientated pilots (75% want to be career pilots, rest want to be researchers or just get a private) so most people go all the way through commercial multi and about half go up to their MEI.
Multi engine students go all to the senior people which are about half wanting to go to the airlines, the other half who have retired to this position. Right now it will take about 3-4 years before I ever set foot in a Seminole again and I've had my MEI for over a year!
My only hope is I get my 135 mins soon and can get on with a freight dogin' place. Most people at my school have around 2000 hours before they get into a seminole. Imagine, 2000TT and 50 ME.
