Yes NTM, you can count on me, we will do it the french style !!!!
For the BEECH1900D I really dont know, but I think having a kind of Jet / Efis / Heavy Turbo experience, is good!
I must really say that I was really surprised that the guy who had the 767 TR with 4000 hours (and was a nice guy), was not accepted!!! strange, because GF was also looking for 767 first officers!
I think the tests + interviews seems to be more important than your type rating / background. of course they are looking for a minimum level of expertise: ATPL + hours + first experience in an airline etc...
What's your backgroung JB?
