The BE1900 FOs fly until they get to 1200 hours, then they transition to the captain seat, likely a BE99.

Where this applies, as far as I read it, if you were to become a 1900 FO at 900 hours, fly 300 hours as SIC to become a captain, when you hit 1500 hours, the 300 hours SIC would be unusable to get your ATP, so you would need to continue to 1800 for the total time requirement.

Saw this on Jetcareers, thanks for posting Jetlife. I didn't get the point of the memo when I first glanced over it, good to know.
