Old days there were many pistons around, Barons, Senecas etc was the norm and you could only dream of getting on that B200, now not many companies operate them, pistons that is..now B200 are easy to get on and B1900`s are getting to be utilized and taking over from the B200, and alot of EMB 120 Brazilia`s are finding their way into the market, so unless you really intent on flying a piston go the Maun route, but if you get on a Van you not goiing to be sitting right too long.. if you have piston time you goiing to start right seat anyway on the Van..so why waste the time on piston..and whoever mentioned that turbine time doesn`t count for much it does and actually count quite alot..
