I walked away with 128 hours of ME. 120 hours PIC. I cant be bothered to go back and look at how many are "safety pilot" ME hours. Probably around 50.
If you look into an FBO and do your cost analysis, that is probably with you renting a ME aircraft by yourself. If you can find someone to go in on it with you and just do some safety pilot time then that can cut down costs big time. The problem is finding someone else to go in on it. The good part though is that you would get to go wherever you want in the plane, and not where a dispatch office tells you.
