Tiltrotors?

Hello everyone,

So I started on the long road to being a commercial rotorcraft pilot and I had a question for everyone.

Does anyone know who currently has the Bell 609/Agusta 609 on order?

From what I have heard they are supposed to get their FAA certification next year and I am trying to set myself up to end up in one down the road once I build (a lot) more flight time.

Also, if anyone on the forums has worked in the 609 program would a dual-rating really be beneficial to have on the resume vs the time I could build in rotorcraft over that same duration?

Thanks everyone.

Look forward to seeing you all in the sky.
