Went to Skywest Open House in SLC. Did their writtens, and the HR. Was scheduled for more interviewing two weeks later. Went and passed. Was hired on the spot, and given EMB-120 class on November 29th.

All I can say is that this is my face right now:

Thanks for all the info and advice given here. Read my "signature" down below. Never give up guys. Keep on trying despite failure. I am a living example of it.

Congrats and good luck!

difete,
I was looking at the pictures on your website. Are those Be90s ex-military U21s?? I've never seen a 90 with a cockpit "skylight" and a crew door. Also, what is the device mounted on the nose, ahead of the windscreen?
 
I can answer this for difete- I used to work for the same company...

Yes, those are the old U-21s! Dynamic Aviation (www.dynamicaviation.com) bought the whole lot of them (120+ and a warehouse of parts) from the US Gov't for about $3 million back in the mid-90's. Since then they've gone through the arduous process of converting them to civilian use. They use them for sterile insect release, as seen in Diego's website. They've got a "Cargo King" STC that puts in a crew door, wide cargo door in back, and a load-bearing bulkhead behind the crew seats. They lease a handful to the BLM for firespotting and support as well as equipping them with camera pods for terrain mapping (like for those in-car GPS units).

The device on the nose is a lightbar used for precise tracking. On the other side, facing the pilots, is series of lights- red and green in the middle used kind of like an OBS. They're tied into the dual GPS system- I can't quite remember exactly, but the inner lights show 3 foot deviation to 30 feet on the outer lights.

...too much info? Sorry I got a little carried away!

I have some pictures of the BE18s on my website www.flyaway1.homestead.com
