What inherent suspicion with ATC, CA and dispatch? ATC has no idea whos flying the airplane. It could be the captain speaking for all they know. My point was with jet handling skills and simply keeping up with the aircraft as that's where a lot of adjustment is needed whether you are a CFI or wet commercial. CFIs and 250hr guys have two big things in common: they rarely to never exceed 130kts and have never flown a jet. The residual skills with dispatch, company operations and other ground school materials is a different thing and anyone can learn that stuff if they study it.
Blast, if my grass were as green as you, I'd be the envy of all my neighbors. Thanks for telling us how it is before you've been there.Originally Posted by blastboy
I wouldn't say a wet comm has poor atc skills. That's all dependent on the individual. I hear plenty of majors missing their callsign when I'm buzzing around here in SoCal.
