Brazilia pilot's
Tell me the good and the bad about her. How hard is the training and the learning of the systems. If givin a choice of either CRJ with long reserve time or Brazilia with very little reserve and lots of flying. What would you do?
Thanks in advance.....

Take the 120 because it will teach you how to fly. Jumping straight into a jet will cost you a lot of stick and rudder experience that you would have got in the 120.
If you are worried about how hard training will be, maybe you are not ready for an airline job or you are in the wrong business altogether.
Sorry to be frank.

TAKE THE EMB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've done my stint on the jet and someday I'll head back but not because I'm excited about flying them, the money's better, but I love the EMB! It will teach you MUCH more than the RJ will (stick and rudder, Wx flying because your fly lower, lots of legs, she's old so the automation is the FO, LOL! Etc).
As for training, it's not hard.....................it's not hard at all. It's just a lot of memorization with application. You've been doing it successfully up until now so it shouldn't be a surprise. Just study with our classmates and if you don't understand something...............ASK QUESTIONS either in class, on your breaks or after hours. If you don't then failing is truly your fault. SKW wants EVERYONE to pass and you’d have to be a real idiot introvert to fail out as an FO.
