Am in exactly the same boat as you, same hours on turboprops (+20T) and nothing is biting out there! I considered the Ryans, just so I could keep flying, however the costs are simply too high, I can't pay 2 TR's in less than two years it would be insane!
So my genius strategy is simply to wait it out.....things will turn around, lucky for me I have no mortgage/family, although I the loss of hours is killing me at the moment, I can't justify further debt! It will take a while, my best hope at the moment is a contract which may see me back flying in 9/12 months!
In the meantime I try and study my fcoms and procedures...lol can't even get work on the ground at the airport!
