Oh yeah, and about flying the jets for your interview, the CRJ is a pain in the butt to hand fly at first. You have to get used to it. Don't get freaked out by the glass cockpit. It really isn't as overwelming as people may say. When/if you interview in a jet, just sit there and figure out where everything is on the MFD. Other then that, you have to watch your N1 on the EICAS. In this case you would have a sim partner - because I have flown the RJ sim by myself...and it is DEF not a single-pilot airplane But, again like I said before, ESPECIALLY in something like this, you need to talk with your sim partner. Use 'all your avail resources.' I hope that this has been pounded into your head by now...

CL65,

Hehehe! Yeah...the 810 is its own beast. No two handle the same I instructed in one for a year...It flies like a Navajo, but descends like an Aerostar...you have to descend with 30 + inches, in order to not descend like a brick! It just has its own corks I guess???
