What Limits,
I take what you are saying, but in my view, I have no civil reputation, so I need to be realistic in building one. I've been flying the great and good for Aunty Betty for the past 16 years, but I have logged zero hours in the civil commercial sector, for example. In order to build up a reputation and a commercial ability, wouldn't I have to be realistic and start slowly? I have no doubt I can fly to any airfield or remote site as well as the next man, but won't a potential employer will always take the experienced pilot over the non-experienced at the same price? Perhaps honesty of ones own experience is the stuff reputations are built of?
As for type ratings, the twin squirell is a start point; once I have finished the extension of the East wing, I'll place more funds at my disposal.
