Hi Mel,
I crewed the Dash 8 for quite some time. Solo flying is great. You get to do things your way!! Within the guidelines though!
It's not stressful at all!
Demo's were done by tape most of the time. I had to know other PA's by heart. If there was no tape deck, I had to read the demo and stop and demonstrate bits and pieces inbetween.
PM me if you have any more questions!
Cheers
CT
