Why in the world would I be afraid of learning from an experienced captain??? you read my post backwards, I would afraid of letting a new guy with 40 hours of multi-engine time land a jet (while I'm in the left seat). Teaching IOE at a regional its not for me AT ALL.
You don't have to agree with me, everytime we talk about low timers getting on with the regionals, things get heated. There's always some who jump in to defend them.
If you feel safe flying a jet with someone who doesn't even have 400 hrs total time, that's cool, none of my business, I respect that.
I'd much rather not do it.
