Why? The view would just scare us!

(BTW, higher time guys aren't immune either. . .)

LoL the last time those guys have flown anything visually was during Private training...and we all know Instructors nowadays can't teach real stick and rudder skills!

as XJ said....it'll probably get worse before it gets better...don't know about the CRJ, but the ERJ visuals were considered one of the "difficult" things to do, regardless of flight time...don't have much of a reference for pitch attitude, but after a little practice, all works out...did you tell the kids to "look outside" hopefully by a hundred feet up or so, they were...but well....ya never know.
