I like Tom's suggestion. I am in the same situation as you are (right down to the model year) and will be doing what he did as soon as it's signed off and ready to go up. For the same reasons he cited. Something to note however is that you will have to find a DPE with at least 5 hours in type. In my case I had to reach out to someone locally and offer to let them fly my plane to get those hours. They're then going to turn around and test me in that same plane. I also think that if Jerry's comments as linked herein are true then you need to think hard about whether you'll ever be flying a conventional twin. I have absolutely no interest whatsoever, but I think you better be real sure about whether that's true for your situation as well. Insurance, as several of my posts have evidenced, is quickly becoming the single greatest obstacle to aircraft ownership... especially twins.
