With regards to 135 vs. 121 time, does the type of aircraft flown come into play? For example, I just got hired to fly night freight, single pilot in a MU2. I plan on doing that for a couple of years to build the 1000 hours + PIC turbine
 
Part 135 PIC Turbine

I don't know that the 135 or 121 is so important, or even the above list for that matter. I have 300 hrs. PIC Turbine, 1400 multi, 1200 Part 135 all of it PIC. I have been sending resumes to all the regionals that are hiring(TSA, Chautauqu, Pinnacle, Comair) for a year and heard nothing from any of them. I have no LOR's and that is the problem, I don't know anyone at the companys that are hiring. Knowing someone is the sole most important thing and I am proof of that. I have very competitive times and yet many with not even half my time are getting interviews because the know the right person, not because the are more qualified. I am not in any way taking anything away from anybody getting a job, especially in todays market. It is just living proof that the flight time and type is not the main factor, it is more who you know. Just my two cents.
