Out of curiosity I am assuming that the summer months you all do a lot of flying and it ramps up? Kind of disappointed to hear they closed as well because I to am getting right at the minimums. It's pretty cyclical that this happens?

Yes. We get heavy on F.O's, then they reach mins and leave. Then we are light again. It is my understanding that the new hiring mins are now 1000TT.

Just got off the phone with HR, she said PS likely won’t be accepting FO resumes again for a year or so, and after March I shouldn’t expect a class date until late fall. There’s still plenty of time for me to hang out so my name is still in the pool, but it is a bit disconcerting. I have applications out to other places, we’ll see what happens.

Still 500TT for SIC's from what I hear, however they're no longer/going to scale back conditional offers upon reaching 500TT. Meaning (before we got fat with FO's) it wasn't uncommon for someone to interview at the 450ish range and get a conditional offer that they have 500TT before they reach ground school.

If you want to fly the Pilatus long term I agree with holdfast, get as much time as possible and you'll upgrade quickly.
