Hmmmm, scratching my head about the title: "Regional Jet & Heavy Turboprop First Officer ..." Then the ad goes on to say that it's for Embraer 135/145/Legacy, none of which are turboprops. It says there's no flight time requirements, so that implies that they aren't looking or pilots with "heavy" turboprop experience. What is a "heavy" turboprop anyway? The only "heavy" designation I know of is wake turbulence category, which is 300,000 lb MGTOW or more. The only turboprop I can think of above that is the AN-22.
