If they do hire at mins, be sure to be every bit as prepared as you can. I just watched a guy receive a pink slip for a failed checkride a few weeks ago.
Florida wise, I'm not too sure since we just closed a base in Miami and moved some planes around. I know we have some stuff there still though.

Yeah I would drop the G1000 thing.
We're desperate for pilots as it is. Just be confident flying a 6 pack and with single pilot ops and you're in.
We are offering a big incentive for SA227 pilots in the form of a $10,000 signing bonus and a 20% retention bonus 18 months in.

My qualifications on a G1000 are simply that, a qualification I listed for my overall experience. I've had 5 students all pass Instrument checkrides as my time as an instructor so far - 1 has been on a G1000 and two were on aircraft that were equipped with standard analogue OBS/CDI.... Put another way I never flew ANY glass till about 300 hours ago and still regularly independently instruct in BASIC six packs, I also never even touched any GPS till I was half way through my instrument training. Ive done localizer BC non precision approaches using basic NAV/LOC REVERSE sensing just fine. Just wanted to clarify my previous experience instead of feeling like I just got put down for setting hands on a "too capable" airplane to be a "good" situational IFR Pilot.

If you hear anything else I'd be curious to hear. Good Luck!
