Was is Worth More in the Log Book

[Citationkid]

What is more valuable in the log book, SE Turbine or ME Piston. I saw a TBM on the ramp the other day and said I wish the company would get one of those and another pilot said that ME Piston time was worth more. What do you think?

Well, I can tell you from my experiences, that most of the regional airlines require a certain amount of M.E. time, usually several hundred hours. So if you have a thousand hours of S.E. turbine time and no multi time, you're out of luck.

That being said, though, if you already have the twin time, adding a bunch of S.E. turbine time on top of it sure looks good.

SE turbine v. ME anything

All things being equal, I would choose ME, and especially PIC multi. The regionals really look closely at your multi. Multi time does not grow on trees.

For that matter, neither does turbine. I would second LAXSaabdude on going for SE turbine if you have at least 500 hours of PIC Multi.

Good luck with your efforts.

That's ALL I would be doing if I was 14 again. nothing but chasing girls.

 

[Citationkid]

You are 14! The best time you could be building right now is the number of hours spent chasing girls!

I find time for both

P.S. I'll be 15 next month so when you talk about how wrong I am make sure you say that I'm ''a little 15 year old B!tch that doesn't know any thing'' instead of 14.

Multi-engine Time hands down. I know when we interview we could pretty much care less about the "single-engine" time, that grows on many more trees than the multi-engine time will grow on ... Although some regionals seem to careless about 135/turbine time ( atleast my own personal experience thus far with one regional) so who really knows... If I could only go back in time...lol

But you can't drive by yourself, right? Don't you need your parents with you at 15? Tough to score poon when you need mommy and daddy in the car.

And learn to use the search button! This question has been asked several times.
