I do however know of some airlines that have PIC requirements. PIC time makes you marketable anywhere beyond the fact that it makes you a better pilot. I would take the 1000 hours PIC in a 172 or a Seminole over 1000 hours in the right seat and a lateral move ANY day. But I guess you kids with 250 hours who would sucker punch a nun to fly a jet know better than those of us actually in the industry with a couple thousand hours
so you're saying that a candidate with 1500 hours, 1000 being 121 turbine, and 500 being other stuff is actually WORSE than a candidate with 1500 hours of 1500 being PIC, and 200 PIC multi with it as well?
121 carriers also don't require degrees anymore either, so we'll just not worry about that anymore either
and i'm not a 250 hour wonder
