you are aware that the PIC time could have been in a C-150 aren't you? Believe me we have 5,000hr PIC Jet guys that are check-airmen here that cant get an interview from CAL................. I am not saying this fella isnt qualified but I doubt the guys at CAL were super impressed with his "Beech 1900 check-Airmen status"
