No.
For it to count, the operation must require an ATP for the PIC. Turboprop cargo does not require an ATP so therefore does not qualify.

All suggestions and comments are welcome for discussion.
SA227 aircraft are based in ELP,. First Officers are expected to provide their own living accommodations. Captains may commute from any location with regular air service at company expense.

SF340 crews are based in DFW and E120s are relocating to CVG shortly. Captains and First Officers are expected to reside at their respective bases at their own expense.

All charter pilots work a 2 week on/2 week off/2 week on/1 week off schedule.

Those salary figures are for the SA227. E120 and SF340 have a slightly higher base figure (about $101K first year)

Correction: Metro charter pilots work a 2 week on/2 week off/2 week on/1 week off schedule. SF340 and E120 charter pilots work a 3 week on/1 week off schedule.

Smile Experienced FO with 820hrs of 121 time 3500TT

And we generally don't move 340 and 120 first officers directly over to the left seat of those aircraft. So if becoming a 340 Captain is your ultimate goal, you are better off starting in one of our other aircraft AS a captain.

So the question is would I be able to come on as a DEC to the EMB120 with 3500TT. I’m typed in the ATR 42/72-600 and Saab 340. I have 820 hrs in 121 time. Or do I have to come in as an FO? Thx

All fleets are DEC if you have the hours. You would have no trouble getting the EMB120 (PIC) with those hours.

You can definitely get in as a CA, the question is just if there's spots. Looks like GEG is open.

Astray are the available locations public or is it internally posted?

What he said. I think there are also E120 capt openings in our Charter dept, which will be based out of CVG by the time you would be hired and get through training.

Hello everyone,

I applied for Capt on the B1900 a few weeks ago. A recruiter emailed to arrange an online chat but he never called and now he is not responding to me. Any ideas how I can move this along?
