I got my 1000 turbine pic before going 121. I did it in props then another 700 pic in biz jets before going to the airlines. That being said, I know because i had the 1000+ pic turbine time, it was a large factor of being hired. Getting turbine pic time is valuable no matter how you slice it. I have fiends at regionals that have been sic's for many years and havent logged pic since a cessna or seminole. most dont have more than 500-1000 pic total. for me it worked out for some reason.... I would suggest get pic turbine, make a livable wage ,and dont commute. you will be much happier, in my own opinion. Good luck
