Not generations removed from your AGE, but generations removed from your position in the flying industry is what he was saying I think.

It's ironic isn't it.....you can fly a jet @ 500mph with 50 souls on board with 250 hours, but you can't fly a turbo prop that seats 14 and cruises at 350kts.
I got it that the jet job is a regional - what job is the turboprop?

I figured that one was as an FO with a seasoned Captain at your side and the other was as a single pilot PIC with no one at you side for back-up.
