So there's a regulatory barrier? Perhaps. But in practical terms you
can still start and finish on a 747, if money is not a concern. Or
better still, you can learn on a simulator.

Those basic skills are what saves aircraft when things go wrong.


Not when they don't match the aircraft being flown. Having flown a
Piper Cub won't help you much when you're flying an Airbus.


Yes, it will, fjukktard.


I know, I've flown both.
