Alpar - airlines, regionals and commuters don't care whether you qualified under 61 or 141, your license is the same no matter what syllabus you followed. There are no penalties for dropping a 141 course and going the regular 61 route, but there are flight time penalties for going the other way! However do bear in mind that a part 61 CPL needs 250 hours total time whereas 141 needs only 190. Ultimately hours in the logbook count so a 61 course would make sense, particularly multi-time wherever possible, cross country, night, IFR - putzing around the pattern in a C152 isn't quality time. hope this response helps/
