Moving further along the line you'll find that Jet2 do not deem Dash 8 PIC time as good enough for their DEC recruitment profile. In fact, in the recent past this experience would only get you a 70% FO contract. Is that right? Well, again I wouldn't want to be thrown into the left hand seat of a 737 from a Dash 8 LHS no matter about ground/sim/line training. But maybe that's just me.
Lots and lots of guys and gals going LHS Q400 to LHS E195/175 here with no problems at all, some me included with no jet experience prior. I know the Ejet has a rep as "easy" but is a 737 considered really that massive a step change up? I'm genuinely interested. Anyone gone Q400-Ejet-737/A320?
