this really wants to fly for the commuters...

[General Lee]

In their defense, most major airline pilots were at "true" commuters, flying Beech 1900s, EMB 110s and 120s, Metroliners.

Not DC-9 sized RJs.

Haha I like that......



Bye Bye----General Lee

Yea pretty much. Button pusher.

+1. Haha.

When jumpseating as a "commuter" pilot I saw so little hand flying on "mainline" aircraft. Now that I am flying a "BIG" airplane I miss the hand flying. To accuse "commuter" pilots of not having any flying skills is ridiculous. Mainline aircraft are much more automated than any RJ. No autothrottles, no VNAV. Give me a break.

This little airplane rocks!

So what your saying is. The older the airplane the more of a "real airline pilot " you are ?

What a ridiculous statement.

How in the hell did you extrapolate that? Talk about ridiculous. No, he was not saying that at all.

Improve your grammar, and you'd make a great aviation reporter some day.
