Re:- dbriglee

Your the type of guy we all don't want in the cockpit with us, your attitude stinks. Fly** must be very proud of what they have produced.

If you think that your IR test is more valuable then years of experience and probably having actually had engine failures in those aircraft that don't take any responsibility to fly then you are so very wrong IMHO. All the guys you sit next to that have taught you how to fly those nice big shinny planes have flown the crappy oil soaked just about legal aircraft in conditions that I'm sure you wouldn't go up in on your own. Skills and experience you can't learn flying two crew airline stuff from the second you get out of flight school. There is no right way of getting your flying experience but you need to appreciate you have been exposed to a very small amount of it.

You are allowed to learn in the right seat because the Captain is sitting with you and at any given point his " experience and judgement" will make the final calls on the safety of your flight, not you.

You learn more every year that you fly and you get a little better every year, provided you don't already think you are Gods gift!!
