Galvin Flying in Seattle. $399 per hour or $359 with their $500 annual membership. They have 2 of them and though there are some restrictions, I think you can rent them solo with enough time in type.

Does anyone know of a DA42 that can be had for less? I understand I will likely have to travel for it but that's life.
Any information on that 650 flying? Pay? Rotation?

I don’t know pay or rotation or location for the 650 but a Leidos buddy of mine says the pay will be VERY good. Better than what they’re paying their King Air PICs. Take it for what it’s worth.

Excellent. Hopefully when the time comes I will hear from them.

It's been proven time and time again beards don't interfere with mask fit.

Because some contractors will sue or fire you if you do.
