I'd have to agree with KiloAlpha....these airplanes are not easy. I had a 767 Capt. jumpseat the other day....first time on a CRJ...once we got out of 10,000 Ft the first thing he said was "My god...ya'll are busy". The training in intense. We had guys in our training with 6-700 hrs and over 100 multi and they still struggled. a few didnt make it....including a beech 1900 driver (still not sure about that one). Anyway If you wanna make it through the regional with minimal cuts and bruises....get some experience. It'll make your Captains alot happier too....
