.....I am sorry for turning this into a slugfest.
Don't be sorry. You merely posted something you wanted an answer for. It's just unfortunate that some of the replies you got were from those that don't know a thing about flying airplanes. And, you also got a few responses from those that THINK they know about airplanes. You even got some replies form those that claim to be airline pilots, but can somehow avoid the ops specs laid down by those who do know what's going on.
