Great Lakes 1900 FO

There are some valid points here. I recall a good friend of mine (Worked for the ALPA Safety committee at his airline) being very impressed with the Canadian approach on Safety. I actually was able to participate in a Canadian checkride (Sim partner was from Canada and they flew the Canadian representative in to administer the checkride) and the main difference I saw (Which I liked) was the focus on BOTH crew members (Whereas the FAA focuses primarily on the guy in the left seat)

Just my $.02

The Canucks are GREAT. I've seen them work in the cockpit, and they're very very efficient and CRM oriented, but with a very good emphasis on stick and rudder skills. I like their system, but am a little tired of the cold. Lol.
