Could be....heard he was in the E120 for a bit...doesn't take much more than that.

More like 5%....unless it's a class of 2 and one falls on his sword...then you will get your wish. The 76 is pretty easy to get through training....its just not a difficult aircraft.

5%? there have been classes of 4 and 2 not make it or quit in short order. Guess it's not too bad unless you get the one particular check pilot who wants to tell you how much he knows and goes as far as telling pilots when they can or cannot put flaps out. Many are still amazed how this toolbox got to be a check pilot. Most are really good and are there to teach not be a stick in the mudd to fly with.
