that was on a Beech 1900. I can't say how many classes of S340 or B1900s they're doing, but it is a different plane....... The Beech 1900 is an easy plane to learn, just to be honest. The Saab was a little harder, but has a way easier checkride........

Yes, I'm quite sure. I had never flown a t-prop before, and even if I didn't have prior 121 experience it was a simple airplane to understand. The difficult part is the 3 hour oral for the Beech figuring out all that performance crap which is 100% unnecessary, vs. the Saab 30 minute oral that was something like playing the game of "20 questions" and you need 17 right to pass...
