Glad to see that the others got my drift.

Even inside of America, most people in the industry will see the cherokee experience and think.... oh ok, not "Nice! He has high performance experience!!!"
You will probably get laughed it in most small operators if you have high performance there.
Do yourself a favour, only have Total times, PIC, Night, Multi and IFR times in your resume, and then personalize your cover letter to highlight applicable flight hours towards that companies operations.

I use the TC regs as an example as they are what I am freshest on, but in the other countries I have flown in, they either have individual type ratings for every aircraft, or blanket ratings for complex or non complex (CSU, retractable etc).

And to answer your question for common GA aircraft that are high performance.
Just off the top of my head... King Air 200, 300 and 350, PC12, PC12NG, B1900C, B1900D, Embraer 110, and Metroliners are all from memory.

I'm sure there is less common ones flown as well. Whether or not they are flown single crew due to local regs is another matter.
