Multi P1

Hi Twotter

Yes I will agree 100% that Multi P1 is better, but the question was 208 or 206 and then 208 is better in comparison?

Very few guys will let you go PIC on a Multi before 400 - 600 hours TT - and even then it will be tough. A lot of the commercial operators' insurance have 600+ TT and 50 hours on type to go P1 on a multi engine.

So some will have to drive 200 - 400 hours in singles to get there.

The other option would be to go contracting where some guys will take one at 300 TT as P2 on an Embraer 120.

So yes this is again just my input.
