Hello All. New member, live in the US Virgin Islands, just made a friend with a BE58 he wants me to fly. I am a conventionally trained twin pilot, but bought a Skymaster which I owner for 4 years. having to relearn the differential power issues of a conventional twin. i've got about 4 hours with an instructor, but want to go to initial training somewhere. Owner suggested RTC in illinois. Anyone have any other suggestions? Would prefer Florida. Must say that i have absolutely learned to love the baron. Have learned a lot already looking through the Forums.

+1 on Simcom. Did the 58p there in February. Excellent training. Highly recommend Rudy.
