Jyri's gone....That's the difference, and a big one at that. Unbelievable how much one man held back progress to the training department just because of his personal myopic belief.

Yes, it is. You can get PIC typed from either seat.

That apparently every regional FO knows something that you don't.

That you're wrong.

You can get PIC typed in either seat. On some planes it's more difficult because you have to demonstrate you can taxi and you usually switch to the left seat to accomplish this but with the bus there's obviously a tiller on each side.

This alone makes me want to push back my class date. That would be a much more relevant and useful training strategy for a new FO. But I guess I'll slog along with the rest of my class anyway.

Pushing back your training date because of a rumor you heard on APC? Lol please don’t.
