I really wouldn't advise to do that in this current state of time. Do you know how many kingair driver's are out of a job right now? Do you possibly think a 300hr CFI with a kingair type rating is going to be able to compete with guys with thousands of hours of actual experience in them? I wouldn't spend 10-15k on that right now! and I think the 300/350/1900 are the only ones that require it. Save your money
