I am hoping to get on board with Gama, as I am not sure the airlines are for me. Really like the personal contact with clients/passengers and the variety of flying that 135 provides.
Just hard to find a good 135 operator out there...Gama seems to be one of the better ones to work for from what I have read so far.

Log SIC time in a King Air 350?
I am considering GAMA, and may not have the times for a captain.
Maybe a dumb question, but if you are flying right seat in a KA-350, is it a required flight crew of 2 and you get to log SIC time? My brother has flew the 350 single pilot at part 91 a lot.

Gama is also an Eligible On-Demand carrier, EOD, (135.4) which also requires a 2 pilot crew and there is no relief from that.
