>on first officer duties and learn captain duties in a crew environment after
>completion of the first officer training. Most of the students training now
>fly as first officer for an hour or so and then flip-flop with their partner
>and assume the captain role of the training. Keep in mind that these

>have never flown in a turbo prop/jet aircraft and average about 250 hours
>total time. These students are training in Beech 1900 and Boeing 737 level D
>sims for this training I am researching. If anyone could lead me to some
>similar studies that were conducted or have personal input, it is all greatly
