If you go the caravan route, my advice is to get some right seat time in the metro after you fly the Caravan for a year, then get a job flying car parts in a Falcon or lear freighter for a couple years and in about 4 years from now, you'll have a really nice resume with 1000 pic in the Falcon or Lear and some great memories and excellent flying skills.
Good Luck!
Martinaire currently only has 208s and Beech 1900s. I've researched MAC a little. They fly Caravans and ATRs, and they seem to be a really stable company to work for from what I read.
Thanks for the response, DC8.
