Default Re: Please help me someone

The current competitive minimums for regional airline jobs are commercial, multi, instrument, and a pulse.

If you logged a bunch of right seat time in the Bahamas as PIC or SIC you'd better have a darn good reason, 'cause they'll jump all over you for it in the interview if it's not properly logged.

Good reasons include: AC was certified as a two pilot airplane, or FAR you were operating under required two pilots, or company ops specs required two pilots.

Bad reasons include: My buddy asked me to go along, or I got paid to sit there even though there was no such requirement, or I was required by insurance. (Insurance doesn't count as a requirement as far as the FARs are concerned)

You might be able to get away with claiming "safety pilot" time, which is loggable as PIC according to FAR, but looks a little fishy to the interview board.

Hope this helps!
