whos more qualified to be in the right seat though... a pilot factory graduate with 300TT, crm and adavanced jet training dealing with V1 cuts, engine fires, and rapid decomps or a 600TT cessna 206 night time box flyer. dont get me wrong there's nothing bad about box hauling across kansas, but for some to make these blanket statements that some guy with 391TT is fooling himself if he thinks he might be ready for 121 is flat out ridiculous.

i'd love to come over... submitted app via email and fax. just need someone to get back to me and i'll race down to atlanta. watchin tv is getting old real quick.

i'd prefer the 700 if all was equal but it sounds like the 200 is the best bet at ASA so i guess i'll shoot for that. thanks.

disagree... just like every other profession you either have it or you dont. i went from zero to CRJ-900 in 14 months. first day/first flight of IOE i heard the words "your leg your brief"... and you know what, it went fine because i have it. I'm quite good at what i do, but at the same time i deeply hold the belief that every day in the air is another opportunity to learn something new and grow as an aviator. i've been humbled and i have impressed and i've never even touched a 172.

Wow you also think your 300 hours at a structured school with no PIC is better than a night freight dawg :rolleyes:
And God forbid you should have to fly the -200! U need the Heavy CRJ!:rolleyes::eek:

Just curious how cheaply you gave your amazing skills away for to fly that 90 seat jet. Just because you can be an oxygen thief in the right seat with minimal time doesn't mean you have the decision making skills to handle something when the ****** hits the fan and everyone is expecting you to save their bacon.

You may have it but you ceartinly don't get it.:eek:

please enlighten me oh wise one... what dont i get... i've got thousands of hours in the jet now and frankly think i could save everyones bacon if called upon and id be willing to bet you think you could to if given the opportunity.

dont you dare try to touch my bacon!!

Mod note:

Interesting subject line - but drop all of the verbal poke in the eyes with all the near name calling (like this last one "oh wise one and others before on boths sides of the fence). this only leads the thread down a path to getting closed when someone finally can't control themselves. You can debate the issue with feeling the need to stick your finger in someone's chest.

tzadik's next post....
"Let me tell you why I am better than the rest. I am better thean the single pilot freight dog because I was responsible for 2 lives....mine and my instructor. I screw up, 2 people die. Freight guy screws up, 1 person dies. So i had twice the responsibility.

Air force? I don't need a 12000 foot runway!

Navy pilot? Well the boat is always going into the wind so they never really have any challenging crosswinds to deal with. Plus in Daytona if you approach from the east you are over ocean so I am basically carrier qualified...."


nothin personal man but you are the one that threw a bloody carcass into the shark tank...
