Up until recently, the part 135 carrier that my flight school here in Denver is associated with offered what they called a first officer training program, wherein you could pay them between $10K and $25K and they would have you fly right seat on their operations to collect up to 250 hours of multi-turbine time. I had always planned on doing this program once I'd finished my commercial and multi-engine ratings in the hopes that the extra hours would bolster my resume and make it a little easier to find employment. Unfortunately, that carrier recently changed over to a part 121 operation which means they had to close down the program. I'm wondering if something like this still exists out there that I can use and if so, where can I find more information about it?
Thanks,
Greg
PS: On a side note, I'm curious if I might be barking up the wrong tree with this one. I never knew anyone who had gone through this program while it was still being offered, so I'm not sure just how much of a boost it really gives when it comes to finding a job. Are programs like these, if any still exist, worth the money / time when it comes to helping advance my career?
