AGREED! Dont waste a fortune on a few hours in a 206 or 120 that you might not be able to keep up. Spend on the instructors rating, work very hard, get your face around and hang out with the engineers to learn how things tick. Sooner or later an opportunity will crop up. Take all the experience you can and be willing & presentable. Don't dress like a tramp like most pilots. You need to stand out from the crowd.
