Our off shore operation was flying single pilot on 205's when we went to twins (212). No one in the company had any twin time what so ever. My log records 10.55 hours dual, 2 hour check ride and 15 hours ICUS before being let loose single pilot. We had an absolutely outstanding flight and ground instuctor. Ground school lasted a week with a written exam on each of the systems. Absolutely no one had any problem adapting to twin operations and I don't really know or understand what the fuss is about when it comes to twins, you don't have the asymetric handling problems that come with multi fix wing that require a deft pair of hands and feet.
