errmmm
 
Honestly ,you really want to buy a TurboProp rating to get chance in Executive Flying?:bored:
Well in my short Aviation Career havent seen much Props on the Aprons of popular Executive Fields.
:sad:

Plus, it's all about who you know, not what rating you have (thankfully).

Anybody that wants to charter a private plane will not use a prop , the price is not much different and the jet is +-150 knots quicker . The few props you are going to see are people that own them , they tend to fly them themselves.

hmmm have seen a few piaggio avanti's on the GAT especially in Italy. But cant really go wrong with the King Air for air taxi work.

Good luck

Hi experienced pilot,

My advise is:

Get one of each, that way you have more options open.
In fact, while you are at it get some jet ratings also.
