Try Flight Express to build your hours over 1500. You'll be more marketable after say a year with them.

Default right seat

Ameriflight has a right seat program for the Beech 99. It's a "pay to play" type program.

Go to homepage of APC; click on "Airlines", then "Cargo". Check out each company.

Default right seat

Ameriflight has a right seat program, they don't advertise it that well, but if you submit an application you make remarks that you are desiring an FO position.

Or you could put in your time instructing, flying jumpers, etc...and NOT pay for right seat time.

don't buy your way in, be an instructor or something. You will need the PIC down the road anyhow

Default Be patient, Grasshoppah!!

I agree with dingo222, don't pay for right seat time. Best route is CFI or CFII. I have a bunch of folks flying traffic reporting for me, but that's always VFR. Good time builder, but it's all VFR time and no multi. If you can do multi- and/or -instrument instruction, you'll gain both the hours and skills needed to jump into 135 ops (which is where I am right now).
