dimitrispa31: Why would a TP captain have trouble moving to a jet PIC after an year or two on the right hand seat? The years on a turboprop are not valuable? The diversity of experience is where airmanship and knowledge come from. Five years of jet flying under the sun is nothing compared to flying a TP in harsh winter conditions.
I have never flown a jet, but is it really so much harder that it takes five years to learn for an experienced chap?
