King Air course

[Jpiper]

Looks like I might be going through the King Air 200 type rating course at Flight Safety (Farnborough) in the next month or two. I have the Flightsafety training manual but was wondering if anyone could let me know of what to expect.
Cheers

That rather depends on your previous experience, if you'd care to elaborate

Most honest aircraft you will ever fly, so you will not struggle. When is your course date?

[Jpiper]

Just less than 1000TT. Single crew rating but going to be flying dual crew public transport.

Course is early August.

If you're going o Farnborough will you be flying older non proline machines?

Lovely aircraft. I used to fly an E90 30 years ago. At idle power there was still too much power for taxiing and rather than ride the brakes we used to put the props into the beta range for a bit, it took a real knack to preempt taking it out at the right time. I wonder if it is different nowadays?

Do King Airs still have a pilot relief tube? Push the button and the suction starts...highly embarrassing even on your own....
