Cobber is correct. This aircraft has extremely good brakes. Unless there is snow or ice, you really never need them. However here at Eagle they are not pinned. The book says we can only use them if the runway is shorter than 6,000' or if the runway is wet. There are also some other times that we MUST use them. But then there is the catch all which says that we can use them any time that we deem necessary for safety reasons. But seriously thought, the brakes are more than adequate 98% of the time.

For some sort of egotistical reason which I don't quite understand, many pilots refuse to pay a fee to access climbto350.com. But those that find it a fair deal to pay for information would know that companies in Florida and California have recently been hiring Legacy pilots.

Also, countries abroad are buying these planes and hiring qualified pilots as well. But you probably need to have a subscription to know that. Or at least know somebody that does.

PS... I don't have any affiliation with the site although it probably sounds like I do. Its just that I have found very good jobs on there and I hope my fellow pilots can find the same.

Thanks for the info. I paid for that sight about 3 years ago and never saw anything that worked for me on there but maybe ill try it again. It sounds stupid but when money is really tight sometimes website subscriptions take a back seat.

There's charter operator in Kuwait that hires for its Legacy fleet. I looked them up a year or two ago so I don't remember the name. I noticed though that pt135 places here want actual Legacy training, vs pt121 ERJ training.

Today is an employer's market...but there's at least one member of APC that I know who was hired into his Legacy position with only airline ERJ experience.

Not unless you're a U of I graduate who was an FO at Expressjet when he was hired by his current Legacy-operating employer ;)
