Thank you for your honest input, Saladfingers!

You know Atwater has a Starbucks and another one is being built next to Food 4 Less! You left too early, my friend!

"Hello theya young child!" I got your message and I'm calling you back soon. I loik rusty spoons.

New captains should not bear the burden of being a flight instructor.

Did I miss an announcement? What regional are you at?

Yep, ya did. It's a shiny CRJ with a red tail.

Negative! I didn't leave soon enough!

He's still mad they wouldn't grind his sorry Trader Joe's coffee in their machines.

It's true. I figured since they knew me by name they'd grind some TJ's coffee for me, seeing how I was such a loyal customer and all. As you might guess there's no Trader Joe's within a thousand miles of Dallas.

Seriously though, will a single engine CRJ or ERJ roll you over in the event of an engine failure? I am sure it pulls, but I doubt it is as dangerous as a Baron or something of that nature. I mean, the thrust is right there pretty close to the center line of the aircraft in most of those RJs. Do jets even have critical engines?

I can see Tprop operators wanting more multi time but for the jet carriers I would think knowing all about Vmc and critical engines aren't quite as important. The design of the Saab340 looks like it wold be a handful. Even the 1900s and the Bros have T-tails.

Not trying to ruffle feathers, just wondering if my thoughts are possibly correct?

The Brasilia will try very hard to kill you if you lose an engine at V1 and it doesn't feather. A baron's got nothing on it.

"From what I gather so far, line CA are worry about the class I am in. Check airmen have warn about this in upgrade class - "Be ready to be flight instructor again."

Something tells me this is the wave of the future...

I could rant about new FOs all day long, and this from a company where they have at least 1000/100. I shall restrain myself however...

That's true on ANY turboprop that doesn't autofeather.
