The economics of a SE Turbine are great for the smaller GA operators.
For pilots in general they are a killer to career progression.
Airlines, and ignorant HR types, want multi, even if its VFR multi, it will be taken over and above IFR ATO SE Turbine. For the simple reason they don't look at it to that depth for interview selection!

In about another 5yrs the sleepy NZ aviation industry will wake up and realise there are next to no multi operators for pilots to gain experience on as every Tom Dick and Harry is getting Caravans and Airvans.
