I would also humbly suggest that experience is gathered within the theatre you fly not necessarily the equipment you fly and for how long you fly it. You get more 'comfortable' the longer you are on a specific aircraft but that's about it.
Fast jet jockeys gain experience very quickly within their particular sphere of aviation and the same can be said for HEMS, SAR, Relief flying, Christian aid, instructing etc. etc. etc.
The trick is being able to draw on these experiences from differing scenarios and apply them in an acceptable manner into the current environment that you fly. Personality and 'approachability' figure massively in this bit of the equation.
Experience can be gained in many ways but the application of that experience is the key. Hours can be totally irrelevant it's just a filter.
