I can't fathom a major giving a rat's rear end about glass time, RVSM, RNP, RVAV arrivals / departures and approaches. The entire professional flying world knows that if you master flying a six pack in busy airspace that flying something with all the whizbang stuff is like shooting fish in a barrel. It's a much more difficult transition going from glass to steam (explains part of the washout rate).

BTW, the fastest thing in the sky is only 40 kts faster than a Dash 8 where it counts from a pilot's standpoint.
