Cool

I believe much more importantly than time on type is
EXPOSURE, EXPOSURE TO EVERYTHING.

It takes the first 1000hrs on a jet to feel "at home" and then TIME to experience the traps.

There are plenty of cases overseas and here of rapid promotion, little experience (both total and on type) and new type that have ended in disaster. ( AN 747 rwy 16 SY !!)
