For once, I actually agree with iahflyr that the multi-requirement becomes nothing more than a box to check at 100 hrs. I have a hard time believing that the learning plateaus any higher than 50 hours or so (for most applicants, of course!)...

I'm not saying I disagree with that fact. That's what I was saying, there are some singles with more power than light twins. I just think this was one of the airlines reasons for having the requirement.

It's funny that during my ATP Instructor Standardization (for those in the know, the "Rich" ride), I was ripped to pieces for not slowing the Seminole down to 100 KIAS 15 nm out...I was told that anything more is way too fast for the students...
You can sure as hell bet that I wasn't teaching my students junk like that.

Then send your extras to California if your talking about the BRO! I have only seen one day with no red arrows since SkidPlus+ started for us in FAT. Not even with 11 reserves (17%) FO's give us any flexibility. I say put all the new hires in the EMB's to beef us up a bit. They are not moving many of us to the jet because there are plenty of CRJ FO's sitting around and nobody to replace us BRO guys. I will be lucky to get a transition award after being here 14 months. Enough moaning from me now! Good night from the SkyWest motherland.

I stand corrected then! Two whole days with no red arrows! I was probably off that day so I missed it. Congrats my friend!
