I have almost 1200 hrs. TT, about half of which is SIC turbine flying freight - which I don't enjoy very much. I'm thinking hard about trying to get a regional job, even though I'm close to being ready for a 135 PIC gig. Ultimately, I think I'd like to settle into a fractional career for the long term, and it seems like the RJ would be more closely related to a fractional job than freight dogging.
Which will get me closer to my goal of a fractional jet - The 135 PIC cargo time, possibly (maybe) in a turbine, or the 121 jet job in the right seat? Neither is exactly what I want to do in the long run, but at least with the RJ I might eventually get upgraded to CA, which I could totally live with if the fractional thing didn't work out for some reason. Yeah, I know flying freight for a while is a good way to sharpen your flying skills and all that stuff, but right now I'm just trying to find out what will be most attractive to the fractional recruiters in another year or two. Thanks in advance.
