I am way more worried to fly on a US commuter carrier doing service for any of the legacies then using a low cost airlines.
i don't know about you but i would not be very comfortable with the fact that there was only one pilot on the flight....he could be the best trained, flying a new plane & be the best pilot for flying in bad conditions, but what if something happened to that pilot during the flight????none of these things would matter....what would matter is if there is another pilot ready to take over in such a senario....
