Hi everyone.
I've joined Beech Forums as I am investigating a possible job flying a Beech 99 (Skydiving operations.) If that doesn't turn out to be viable, I am planning to get a King Air Type rating as airline flying as lost all appeal. I have nearly 2000 hours (out of 5000 TT) single pilot piston IFR flying so I think I have some idea what I'm getting into. The skydiving job, if I get / take it I see as being a good way to get some hours on (a related) type.
Professional Pilots Rumour Network had a post reconmending this site for future KA pilots, so I thought I'd come along and see if I can pick up a tip or two.
Cheers!

Thank you. The Pprune post mentioned it and I've just looked at Tom's post on the Turbines forumns. I'm visiting the '99 operation this Saturday and if it's a goer, I will be straight on to him to order it!

Good luck Adrian
Kudos on future King Air driving. I own a 47 Bo, want my multi comm ifr this year, then I'm going to jump into any King Air driving as well. I want to sit copilot until I'm very insurable. I want to fly corporate in 5 years. Well Im 48,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,not dreaming though, just have to PAY as I go.

Let us know how it turned out.
