Less than 100 each is a bit daft when it's not necessary, especially as I know they have crew with time on type
SRT, I hear you on that one, was a great way for some people to be brought back to earth I remember training with one guy and after a look at the grass on the side of the runway he profesed amazement that after flying a Buffalo he could be "chewed" by something as small as a Twotter!!

As I recall from my past, Twotter lesson 1:- The Tiller (also known as the plastic arm)
Use only for ground manoeuvring e.g. Taxying
Don't touch thereafter! Or at your own peril it be!!!
I think we've all been munched gently at some stage
Having said that I knew one guy who could sucessfully use it at close to 50 kts....terrifying
