What? If you can fly a Bro, Saab, Dash 8 etc, you will have no problem handling an RJ, or even a 737 for that matter.

The Saab 2000 and Q400 can easily truck along at 280 kts IAS at 10,000'
Not sure about the brasilier but I am under the impression that its pretty quick for a prop too.

I know lots of people that went straight from a Beech 1900 to the right seat of a 737 & 757, for CAL and MD80 for Allegiant.

121 turbine is the key here. I don't even think the PIC time is as important as it used to be considering the number of F.O.'s heading to Spirit and Virgin America lately.[/QUOTE]

Emb-120 cruises at 245-260 TAS. Indicates around 220 at 10k.
