Also, you cant replace experience. A 1500 hour guy has just "seen it more...and seen more" than a 200 hour CFI.

When you are hauling customers around, getting them there safely is really all anyone cares about....especially the customer.

Would you, as a passenger, prefer to have a 1500+ hour guy up front or an ERAU special up front?????
