The King Airs were easy since they're so similar. The Phenom, which I flew the most, was stupid simple and easy to fly. They rarely used me in the Beechjet and I'd agree with your statement...

I will be DFW based and need to do some tongue excercises in order to get used to that call sign.
I fly two jets and other piston planes for a private family in the Miami area. I am not at leisure to publiclly disclose who they are. Sorry

No need too. A Legacy 600 is quite the private family airplane

Tongue Exercises I have actually been using just "AirShare" followed by the flight number and I think the controllers enjoy that. It keeps it short for them as well.

RI - Just left you a VM. Sorry I haven't been more engaged with you than I have, I'm very happy for you and am happy to welcome you to DFW.

As for the flying of multiple aircraft -- my colleague above has already discussed this, but the CP and DO are getting the company away from having anyone operate more than 2 aircraft at a time. My proof is in their actions, I am a C90B and KA350 Captain, and when it was merely mentioned that I might be a good candidate to fly as SIC on another aircraft, the CP respectfully explained that they want to have me keep my head in the King Air. Sounds good to me!

As hiring continues, things are improving... more and more... RI -- I think your coming in at a good time.

Sounds like BJ and AF are trying to change things for the better.
