Pax 07, you've figured me out. I've never been accused of being too complex

AV8R, I think you've hit an important point. There seems to be a huge expectation of entitlement with newly crowned CPL pilots. It's not good enough to be an instructor or fly a turboprop, but a belief that they deserve a big, shiny jet right out of the gate.

It blows me away to think that the kid in the right seat of a 737 or an RJ has got 5 hours of multi-engine experience. That trend needs to stop.
