there is a famous saying when doin NAV AID work
WHERE AM I, WHERE DO I WANNA GO AND HOW DO I GET THERE
Ask yourself this, then speak to people who arn't trying to sell you something for advice, if you aiming for an Airline, chances are, unless you do a cadetship, you are going to have to build you hours somewhere. The best place for this is probably as a charter pilot somewhere. This as with all Aviation is Bloddy competitive, so you need to stand out above the rest ie If operators use 210's, rock up with some 210 time. This can be dome in conjunction with your training, ie instead of doing all your CPL training in an say an Arrow, do 15 - 20 hours in a 210. This will keep you cost's down as many a pilot has been turned down the job because of insuffient time on required types, and have had to go and do it after they had completed their training, which has incurred additional costs.
Hope that helps
