Like many pilots out there, I've recently been laid-off. I don't have enough time to fly under part 135 IFR PIC requirements. So I'm looking for anything to build my total time up quickly. Recently I've been offered a job towing banners and doing maintenance for a small company that flys 600-800 hours per summer. My question for the "pilot mentors" out there is this:
1. Should I take it and build my total time sufficient to move on with a regional...duh, YES
2. Will taking the obvious 2 steps backwards hurt me in the long-run?
3. Is banner towing less career enhancing than say, pipe-line patrolling, or traffic watch?
Any thought are appreciated.
Thank you
