I have called their Chief pilot, I can not remember his name really, I think he was a pakistani with an american acent. He informed me that, I need to get a B1900 type rating even if I hold x amount of hours on a light twin.
I have seen the B1900 in Bahrain, I think it was there for a pretty long time. And it looked like a scrap aircraft!!!
accent...sorry for the mis-spelling in the previous post.
