Aight, So maybe I was just a little bit ticked when I read the post and probably shouldnt have done any name calling. The idea that low time pilots dont even belong in a Seneca much less an RJ is complete garbage. So tell me where is a low time pilot supposed to get his twin time if they dont even belong in a seneca???? I guess what DMEarc wants is for people who arent as high and mighty as himself to get there multi engine time in an RC plane since according to him someone with 38 hours of multi doesnt even belong in a seneca. I know plenty of good pilots who are low time and I know plenty of higher time pilots who arent worth a crap. You cannot judge ANYONE's abilities solely by their flight time. As far as the Captain being an instructor, I dont think they should be up there teaching people how to fly completely but obviously whether you had 10,000 hours or 40 hours and were brand new to an airplane your going to need some pointers from time to time if the person sitting next to you has a couple thousand hours in type. Im not saying that every single person with low time out there flying RJ's belongs there but I am saying you cannot stereotype low time pilots in RJs as "dont know what theyre doing and need the captains help to fly the plane all the time."
