Yeah fair comment.....but im only trying to point out how much money is involved here. Your looking at the best part of a 1000 hours, plus several hundred MEP hours before any operator is realisticaly going to let you fly air taxi for them. You'd honestly have far more chance of getting in with a regional turboprop airline and working your way up. 1500 to 3000 hours on a TP at a regional airline is perfectly achievable in 2 to 3 years, along with a command and a reasonable salary of 40 to 50k a year.....why on earth would you want to fly air taxi in a beat up old twin with no autopilot for 15k a year?? At least with an airline you will have some stability...a roster....company pension etc etc....its a no brainer really.
