To me, if you have the opportunity (and get the PIC type), in reality you're effectively working your first year for regional wages, but you now have a type rating in your pocket that no one (except the FAA) can take away from you which can help you get a job and earn a living down the road. To me that's a better gig with better QOL than the regionals (with the exception of you almost undoubtedly won't be building flight time as rapidly).quote]

I like your thought process, and if given the opportunity, I will ask about doing the PIC type instead of a SIC.
My total time is just over 750 with about 36 multi. All in the Dutchess and KingAir.
It all dosent matter though if I can't get the job, but I am pretty sure I will. And I totally agree about the QOL being better than the Regionals. As it stands right now, I can't even meet their mins anyway.
Thanks
