I could be wrong but I've never heard of an airline that allows you to fly on two different planes at the same time. At my regional you dequal on your current aircraft the day you start training for a different plane. The closest thing I know of is dual qual for crj 200/700 or common type like 757/767. I would love to take advantage of his offer but honestly I'm curious if he is legit. Seemed like a cool guy, but people do lie about all kinds of weird stuff. Why, I have no idea. Can Hawaiian pilots elaborate if this indeed is the practice there?
