Hello all, Long time lurker, first time poster. I have 4000 PIC, almost all of it single engine VFR time on floats, over 2000 of it turbine time in a Caravan. My plan is to do my multi-IFR soon and start steering towards a corporate or airlines position. Is a 337 job a worthwhile fast track to 500 ...

I see Sunwest has a $500 Employee Referral Bonus Program.

If any current captains want to befriend a 4000 hr PIC float guy, 2000 turbine, feel free to PM me.

How much straighter would you like? Oh, I guess I forgot to mention that crew housing is provided at all the bases. Clearly a gross oversight on my part. :roll: I was simply trying to get an answer about how strict the 100 multi-PIC request was, and in one post, you said, "What he said" regarding B...

Just a quick comment to add...Last I checked a 337 has two engines..It is multi time... I may be a 4000 hour float pilot Trey Kule, but I'm not totally brain dead. :roll: Ha ha. In hindsight, I should have titled this thread, 'Is 337 time considered "valid" multi-PIC time at your company?' Like I m...

Toeless Joe and Brown Bear,

You guys don't make it easy on a guy just trying to get some straight answers.

Cdnpilot77,

I'm guessing you're the real deal, but in the hopes that you're wrong, I'll just call in the morning.

Thanks.

Are they hard and fast regarding the 1000 TT, 100 multi-PIC, for the 337's?

I have 4000 SE PIC, 2000 turbine, but only minimal multi-PIC time.

Thanks in advance.

Take into consideration that a lot of their operation is done with Contrails requirements, meaning you'd need 500 hours of multi-PIC to upgrade. They have Navajos which are used on bag runs, but I'm sure the waiting list for FOs to get on them and get their multi-PIC is rather long. You'd probably ...

Thanks for your input KAG. There's no question my IFR skills will need some seasoning. It's been 8 years since I had a valid multi-IFR and ATPL's written, but I'm looking forward to stretching my brain and doing it all over again this Fall. The other thing I have zero experience with is a two-crew e...

Jim La Jungle, thanks for your thoughts. I've already committed to one last summer in the Caravan, so I'm not looking immediately, I'm just planning for next winter. Flyinthebug and I'm just one, thanks for your comments too. It's interesting to hear how other companies look at 337 time. By the way,...
