Now, we all had RJ or turbine time to go along with the 402 PIC. I doubt anyone will go to a legacy directly from 9K, but every knowledgeable pilot I've ever talked to has the utmost respect for 9Kers. 402 PIC won't fill the check box on the HR evaluation form, but when you get to the interview, and especially the sim ride, it will open eyes and doors.
And in the meantime you won't have to eat Ramen noodles 3 meals a day.
PS - Bentley, you are soft.
Gotcha. Fortunate enough to be at SkyWest and avoided ramen noodles all together

But JetBlue, Virgin and Spirit don't have sim evals.
