Those CRJ courses are a waste of money in my opinion. The airline will teach you everything you need to know if you get hired. If you one can't pass that training perhaps they aren't ready for airline flying. It's ok to have self-confidence as a low timer but no 300 hour guy is truly ready to be in command of a regional jet. You are in the right seat to assist the Captain as necessary and take over if something happens to him. The lower and more widespread this trend becomes, the more I don't want my family on anything but a mainline flight. I think it's only a matter of time until we see an increase in incidents and/or accidents because the deck is being stacked against experience.
