The AE Baron is a G1000, but the standard rate turn has been configured like an ATR, so it is about 28 degrees of bank. The guy who did my evaluation ride told me that when I questioned why the bank angle was so steep (I have a couple hundred hours in Barons and standard rate is not that steep). He is an ATR guy and number 1 on the seniority list. If your frasca doesn't have a glass cockpit, I would find one that did. That will actually do more for you than knowing the Baron. They will walk you through the airspeeds and initial power settings.
Good luck! I was impressed with my interview experience at AE, and would have taken the job had I not been offered something where I could be based at home without a commute. Seemed like a good place to be. The gouges are spot on, or were back in August.
