So, how do turboprop and air taxi outfits feel about instructors? Single pilot IFR under JAR requires 700hrs so it's not something that a 200hr FATPL is able to do. The 500+ extra hours have to come from somewhere. As for the turboprops, they seem to like to hire around the 1000hr mark; so that they can replace captains leaving for jet jobs with fairly experienced FO's upgrading. Again, where would the additional 800hrs or so after FATPL come from, if not instruction?
I've always seen the route to large jets as a series of stepping stones, upgrading to larger aircraft after the hours build up. Maybe jet operators don't care about instruction time but I find it hard to believe that most turboprop and air taxi outfits are as cold.
