Multi rating.
Are you aware that getting your rating in a Skymaster is an inline thrust rating only. That is, while you log your flight time as multi engine, the FAA does not consider that time as multi engine experience. However, if you get you rating in a multi engine (engines on wings) plane, you count it as multi engine. It is a quirk in the regs. Example, say in several years you log 400 hours in the Skymaster with an inline rating, if you wanted to purchase a conventional multi engine plane, The FAA will not recognize your time as multi engine time. However, if you have conv. Multi engine rating, all the time in the Skymaster will be considered multi engine experience. I know, it is nuts, but that's the way it is. I suggest you consider training in a conventional twin.
Good Luck
