A bit of a dumb question. Just so happened to glance at my boss' desk and came across a resume today from a guy who had time in 26 different types of aircraft. Pretty much all piston from the c172, chipmunk, Archer all the way to an Aztec. The only turbine I saw was C208. Does having time in 25 different piston aircraft really make you that much more appealing to employers.

Cheers

Must have been a long glance!
Multiple types at least says the candidate, like a good dog, knows more than one trick so to speak.
Of course it all depends on how much time he actually has on each type - a one hour drive around the patch doesn't prove much.
