Can the dash 8 operate efficiently over 700 -1100 nm.
Whilst as a passenger I am just as happy in a dash as any other type, I have limits on that and much over an hour and I may reconsider it. East to west with 100+ kt headwinds even at dash 8 altitudes gives you a groundspeed of around 250 kits max in 400's backwards in 2/300's
Over the distances the 717 operates that's not really ideal.
As I mentioned in a previous post, does your EBA salary hold water with the July Fair Work minimum, if not the bean counters no longer have that known quantity.
The path to
VB, Jetstar isn't really relevant. Prop Capt - jet F/O isn't the same as prop capt - jet capt?
Don't want to burst your bubble but most regional pilots regularly and successfully follow the well trodden path. I suspect most pilots out there are of a similar standard, who works for who doesn't indicate much at all.
