I paid for SIC twin time to get in @ Dallas and then I worked up from 635TT to the magic 1200tt that way. As you know, you must have 500TT for the Part 135 VFR only. VFR only gets you a free bed, w/no pay- so if you can afford no income while flying 80 hours a month, email me & I'll run it by my boss. This is a really good time for somebody else to get their foot in the door.
(Congrats on the degree, but it ain't the deciding factor here. They're looking for somebody to stick around a year.)
