My God. It was 4 in the morning, and I took a quick glance and now all of a suddun I am a poser? You guys are killing me here. They look nothing alike? Hmmmmmmm, twin jet with wing mounted engines, fat fuselage, boeing product, but oh yeah, the are as different as night and day. I'm glad none of you all have ever made a mistake. Lord knows I have made my fair share.
As for having 7K, look, when you get a break as a young pilot flying with the Big Boys, you tend to get the ratings that come with the job, no matter your seat. (hired at Fortune 5 right out of college with 900 hours). Not everybody gets lucky like that, and that's why I believe in giving back.
By the way, recurrent is every 12 months per airplane (UPS and FSI) and it is not that bad at all. Gulfstream requires more brain power than the 75 (as long as nothing is going wrong!!)

MVSW said:I think that you guys are RIGHT!! Lets see here
Here has a type in 757/767,GV,BD700,DA50/900 with less that 7K. Iam sure that there are guys that have this but I bet you a$$ they can tell the difference between a 76 and 73 which look nothing alike. He says that he is a CA on a 75 and GV for a corporate department. I bet recurrent training every year SUCKS!LOL
