If that is your first post, I suggest you look elsewhere. Be sure when you interview, tell them you want a ton of hours and can't wait to fly jets and heavies at the airlines in 8 months.

God forbid someone either likes to fly or wants to do something besides fly a PC-12 their entire career.

It's a free country, I'll post where I want. Doesn't sound like you're too happy with life or you wouldn't be chewing out someone who asked an innocent question on APC.

The -12 is a cool bird. The -200 is a cool bird. One just pays the bills and advances my career more.

To answer the original poster's question, I was averaging 50-60 hours a month but I think they're fatter on FO's now than when I was there. Base wouldn't matter much since it's home basing, PDK/PSM may have more opportunity for OT though.

You can expect 40-50 hours per month. PSM and PDK fly the most. There are many opportunities for OT during the summer; you can work a max of 10 OT days per month due to 135 regs. They are fat on FOs at the moment so you will likely pick up much less than that. Captain OT is almost always available.

750TT? Lyon's website says 1000TT plus 300 multi turbines are minimums and to not apply until mins are met? Can you tell me if that has changed based on your post? I'm close to those minimums now and am very familiar with Lyon's operation as my current company used to operate their Hawkers.

Kinda lame to post on other companies topics trying to vulture pilots.
With that pathetic salary, no wonder you got to try tricks like these.
