How many guys do you know who would choose to move out of Part 121 flying to fly a small jet or turbo prop for 50k - 80k a year, be home 90% of the time, and never have to worry about Crew Scheduling calling at 5:00 am? I bet quite a few pilots would be interested, and those opportunities could be possible with enough logged PIC time. Of course you could not say that you were the PIC under Part 121 operations, and I never insinuated that. Open your eyes, man. There is whole big aviation world outside of Regional Part 121, and some people might just go there after Eagle!



As far as what to say in an interview; always tell the truth. That way you don't have to keep track of what you said.
Please read post 173 written by Flyby1206. Logging PIC when acting as SIC will get you no life after Eagle. Thanks for interview tip-- part of being truthful is what you enter in your logbook.
