There is a credit for up to 500 hours of military, multi-engine, multi-pilot, turbine. Single-seat fighter guys are SOL.

Check out craigslist, my sim partner and I got a heck of a deal on an apartment (need a car). We found a guy that had a finished basement with two rooms, a bathroom and a living room. Well worth driving my car up there. All tolled I think I spent <$1,000 for the whole time I was there (over 2 years ago). You could also check airbnb. You might be able to negotiate a monthly rate with someone.

That's the way I'd read it, but I could be mistaken.

I might have to get an FAA LOI on this. The way I read the reg...it doesn't matter if its a turbojet, but that it has to have either 10 seats or more OR be involved in a commuter operation.

You should be good if the 135 PIC time was in a 10+ seat jet or for a commuter operation.
I may be wrong, it's been known to happen. :-)
By the way I read the regs, the 3,500+ hours of 135 PIC I have is useless for upgrade because it was for a freight operation, which isn't included in 135.243(a)(1).
Not a huge issue for me personally since I'd prefer to wait until I can hold MSP CA and by then I'll have more than the required 1,000 hrs 121 SIC anyway.
Having flown the thing a scant six months, I gotta say that 1,000+ hours learning the Jungle Bus from the right seat before jumping into the left isn't the worst thing in the world.
