Ok, ehhhm, great, thanks..
What do you want to say with your statement? Did you learned it by yourself or did somebody showed you how to do that? I guess you also made a TR on the type you are flying on or are you a natural born Pilot? Great, you made it, you learned it, congratulation!! Sorry, I don't want to be sarcastic.
Do you want to warn us TP-jocks not to try to touch a heavy Jet? Or do you even suggest that experience in handling a TP is contraproductive in relation to change to a jet? If yes, we are probably coming closer to my question at the beginning of my thread.
Regarding your answer to the convertees MD80/ DC10, THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I MEAN, it has nothing to do with flying skills, we are talking about the same thing, mate
No, serious, I say it again: IT IS DIFFERENT TO FLY TP THAN JETS, i fully agree, but it's a question of LEARNING TO DO. Nobody can expect to change from a S2000 captain position into a 747 Captain operation. Of course you have to learn it first and going up the step by starting as a F/O again, that's why it has to be lke that...
So, still not satisfying for me, sorry. Hey, it's money we are talking about, not speed times weight=momentum. Is a 20 year old low hours chap with a self sponsored TR on the 747 more qualified to handle "momentum" than a guy with 6500 hours on a TP? Obviously he is, I just want to know why.
I have a guess, it's MONEY, please tell me I'm wrong, because if I'm right, we are all going the wrong way, buddy...
