Cool

Rookie, I'm back in BC now and it is an extremely tough market to get into. AB is tough too unless you have high hours.

Instructing is fine but other companies detest that since they don't consider it to be "hands on" experience. But I think it's ok..however I still prefer float flying to build PIC time..it's certainly better way.

Don't feel you need to "fly" a turboprop right away. Guys getting on with CMA with 200 hours will babysit there for the next 4 or 5 years before they have command. You need your PIC time for insurance.

If I were you, suggest a float rating and get geared up for next spring. You will have fun and at the same time, like BushDriver said, learn! Build up those valuable PIC hours and then look for a twin PIC job.

Your road trip will be one of the hardest things to do but it's sure is worth it!!
