SFF,

Thats one thing I never figured out.

In Canada the Turboprop pilot flies in all the crap conditions..

- unprepared airfields
- crappy wx. ( most of the icing is around FL 200 to Ground level )
- NPA approaches.. up north always NDB's
- multi sectors

yet airlines feel that 300 hrs plus a type has more value.. what crap !

then consider that they will hire cadets with ZERO experience to sit in the right seat of a 320..

Cant figure that out, guess u need to be an X turboprop pilot to appreciate the value of the guys ur turning down.

best of luck
