I don't disagree with you, but I think we need to define what you mean by "systems knowledge" because clearly the company has changed that definition to be "what does the switch do" and that's about it.

In a 175, that sometimes works. In a CRJ I'd imagine it's necessary to actually understand the operation of the system beyond the little system logic that exists.

FWIW, I did fly with a CA that didn't even know our MLW and was planning on landing 3,000 pounds overweight.

Transition, as in you went through with the change, like you use a different bathroom now?

Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to get rid of the EP&L test.
