Thnx

In 21st century you google it . You ll find AFM with check list. Good way to start. Then the same way you can find avionics material. NG stuff.. register on Honeywell website, find PC12 NG and download videos, avionics stuff .
About 2000 pages to read or so .. one of us can provide ground school 1 on 1 at 70$ per hour in Hartford CT metro area Fri -Mon 8am-5pm

Btw looking for different pilots who look at this job as ,, hobby ,, with no aspirations to fly anything else . There are many contract pilots like that here. Then after 1 year or so CJ is available then are willing to assist pilots to get a job with other corporate gigs ..

So PT6, I take it you are currently with TW, no? Do they hire street captains? Lots of turbine and 135 experience as a CA. (Over 2000 hrs in the 135 world, L48 and Alaska). Just sort of wondering out loud.
