You have to realise the difference between goals and expectations. I'd say 80-90% of pilots have the goal of going to the airlines, so you are no different in this area.

But what you have to realise is you are at the bottom of the food chain, there are plenty more experienced and qualified pilots out there waiting for airlines to start hiring again. And I guarantee they will get employed before you, no matter how bad you want it.

The only way you’re going to be able to jump in a turboprop after your initial training is through a cadetship these days.

Otherwise you will have either instruct, or go single engine charter like the rest of us.

P.S. don’t slag other experienced people on this forum as they have worked alot harder than you probably ever will. They and I just took offence to your ignorance of the industry....
