dhc6 type

Hi.
well, i'm in the same grey area, and now looking for an other place.
to add the type on my EASA license as well as.
even do i have an FAA license.

My guess, is we are at the wrong place at the wrong time, because
1) today's experiences dhc6 pilots got there training paid by there actual company or the previous one. as these companies were willing to pay.
not anymore unless absolutely necessary.
2) pilots who just got laid off with a previous dhc6 experience will go back to dhc6 even do they where flying an Airbus for example. Go figure...? money..lazy
3) this airplane fall in the same situation as the BE200.
4) and even with a type rating on an "old" airplane not as popular as A320.
no experience, very challenging.
5)..i'm sure there is many other explanation and reasons.

BUT i still want to fly it..and i will get my type before then end of this year.
And willing to listen.
