Hiring with LOW TT and young AGE
#21
Oh....so we were talkin' about SIC mins the whole time. I guess I somehow missed that...
Don't forget that it's not legal to log 135 SIC unless you've been through the companies training program and passed a 135 SIC checkride.

If he's flying the plane without people/boxes/whatever in the back, it's Part 91 and there aren't any time minimums. However, if there is stuff in the back that's generating revenue, 135 PIC/SIC mins are required.

Ok, this has gone totally off-topic....
If there are no passengers, (like in a dropoff), it's considered a P.91 leg,...so I can log that...100% legal :-)
Maybe flying banner planes..or jumpers...those hire with fairly low hours...

I just now came across this thread. Hopefully, I can clarify a few cloudy items. Under 135 IFR passenger carrying ops, a SIC is ALWAYS required, even in a Seminole or 310. Many places operate without a SIC under an autopilot exemption provided by part 135. That is why they advertise that one must have 1200TT to get hired. They have to meet the PIC mins because the company doesn't have an SIC training program in place. The original poster is probably logging the empty legs as PIC. As we all know, as long as you have a Multi-Engine rating, you can log time in a multi-engine airplane that doesn't require a type when you are sole manipulator of the controls under part 91 as PIC, regardless of how little time you have. I hope this helps. Like I said, I just came across this thread, so maybe you guys straightened it all out before I got here.

im having a hard time understanding how you need 1200TT to fly part 135 IFR.. but you only need 600TT to fly for comair.
... and kind of off topic, as I'm reading the mins for comair, it says atleast 21 years of age, I thought minimum for ATP was 23?
