How am I bragging, I made that comment because someone above said how if you do well and are low time the captain will be pleased....my checkaiman didnt know I hardly had any multi and was low time and said good job... relax... and as for 40 hours of IOE, when they schedule almost everyone for 2 four day trips of IOE, it ends up being about 40 hours.....not rocket science to figure that out buddy...

Still haven't told us your TT, prican1121

It really doesn't matter how much time you have. If you made it through the sim, it shows you can fly....somewhat...
I've seen 3000hour pilots who can't fly the RJ for Sh!T...and I've seen 600hr pilots that do an awesome job.....(and I'm not bragging that I'm the Sh!T up there!:D)

prican: Kind of off topic as to your original post but do you still instruct in the general KBOS/FIT/BED area?

I'd like to finish up some ratings and rather give my money to someone in your shoes vs some of these FBO's with bad reputations. Btw: my friend was hired on as a very low timer at tsa 3 years ago. He was CFI, experience in the BOS area, and graduate of a flight program. He honestly did just fine and is upgrading to Captain after 2 years. The most annoying part he says is apparently pax come up to him and tell him hes too young to fly. From reading on here it seems like this stuff happens a lot.

It's always funny when you respond with a "and I'm just learning now too!"
haha:D

"For all you ladies and gentlemen complaining about being on this small airplane for the first time, don't worry you're not alone, it's my first time also."

If you can fly OP i wouldn't worry about it that much, during my first few months i got the "oh no, when were you hired" just based on being new. Did have a check-airman riding in the jumpseat ask after landing in IAD how many hours i had. when i told him, he simply said that i flew a much better approach than most of the guys with 1000 hrs in type....what was sad, is now that i have close to the 1000 hrs/ type...i can't fly those nice beautiful approaches anymore either....guess it fades.

an xjet fo told me that at xjet they are avg like 100hrs for ioe

No I don't instruct there anymore. PM me and let me know what places you are looking into. I can ask some guys for some more guidance. I worked out of BED. As for the too young to fly, I look young (especially now I'm not allowed to have my goatee). I got the too young to fly when I was a friggin Private Pilot. I'll be getting that into my thirties, but I'll take it as a compliment.

And btw everyone, I'm low time but not a 250 hour fresh commercial pilot. Then again to me, anyone who doesn't have 1500 hours is low time. I guess you can tell I've flown with some more experienced pilots.

I'm torn between :eek: and :rolleyes:
