Just curious where everyone has been going and how they felt about it.
Its not an easy airplane to fly at first if you have never flow an underwing engine jet. Big trim changes with throttle input. I did prep with CPT, thought I did horrible, then did good on the interview. The sim prep was on a -300 model and the interview was on a -500...so maybe that was it. Either way, its not an "easy" jet, especially if your coming from the CRJ.
