When I was starting out, I'd have given my left nut to get an opportunity like this..sure its S/E, but so what?
Pressurized..up in the FL's, and I would assume operated to airline type SOP's
All you cynics need to take a break

As a senior recruiter of pilots for a major company - May I suggest your "attitude" will determine you "altitude" in this career path you have chosen.
Major company, which one? One question I have to ask why is the aeroclub and obviously it's staff involved? Shouldn't you people be looking at the waiting times of members? Looks like some things wont change.

Clapped out old C206 carrying skydivers up to 10,000' or carry aborigines around the NT or flying a nice PC12 as a copilot.
Difficult choice I know.
Perhaps the guy flying the PC-12 leaves next week you might get the left seat gig?
Don't forget the early Learjets were operated in Australia single-pilot and carried a radio operator in the right seat.

Bit Harsh D Dog, notice you got a new profile just to say that...
First job PC12 F/O? Hmm, would be interesting, but if a guy's first 500 hrs after CPL are F/O where is his command time. Co-pilot time logged as 50% so it'll take you a long time to get the 1500 hours total.
Meh, my two pence

Still better than flogging about in a crapped out old C206!!
Best way to get a job flying is take the first job and then look around for the next job, which leads to the next job.
I know a guy whose first job was a DC-3 FO brand new CPL and IFR rating, now is a captain on B747, another first job was as a Twin Otter FO now flying for Cathay Pacific , another guy started out fish spotting in C337 for a few years and likewise flies an Airbus for Cathay Pacific, another one started with CALM doing fire-spotting in Cubs finished up with Skywest.
