Sounds like Seaborne is hiring pilots without prior 121 time. Frankly, that's probably a good thing. Nobody will be all hacked-off because their previous carrier dun 'em wrong. On the other hand, they probably won't be familiar with the more advanced systems in the Saab and the Twin Otter. I read a book published by ASA called "The Turbine Pilot's Flight Manual" before my first airline job and it helped make the transition from a Duchess to a Saab MUCH easier. I highly recommend it. Your systems instructor will appreciate it, too!
