I personally know quite a few folks right out of WMU flight school who
are now regional drivers...no CFI in between and just over 250
hours...



Shudder!

I've flown with a few of those on jets. They tend to be very polished but
there's only a veneer of capability there. They can fly OK and will
certainly get the airplane on the ground in one piece if the skipper has a
coronary, but it's not the ideal scenario up in the front. Simply put,
they're fine day to day but when the **** hits the fan they can be a
liability.

yes scary, but they polished with the glass and have procedures down pretty well, only need the 'grit' that can only
come from experience; experience that is rarely gained for being a CFI...
