I personally came to xjt so I can fly with experienced captains on the type, not the guys trying to figure it out after flying it for 300-1000h in some cases.
For me that 170 award would probably not be a welcomed thing.

Many CFI's at my university are wanting to go to ExpressJet since IAH is close and ya'll are getting the new jets. Shiny jet syndrome.
