Have you ever picked up a "new" aircraft from the manufacturer?
Actually, yes. A Chinook, a BO105 dbs4, a B737, and B777. (I have also many hours on the 146 you mention!)
Does that prove something?
Does that somehow make me more qualified than others, or equaly qualified to you in some bizarre way?? Or should we examine your helicopter experience to determine the merit of your arguments???
This debate is deteriorating somewhat n'est pas?
