Do a little more research. I believe the F/O came from Gulfstream, was pretty new at PCL, on reserve and didn't fly much, and had just over 1000 total. The Capt had been a direct entry Capt at Gulfstream on the 1900 and was had low time in the left seat of an RJ.

Denny or Jason, correct me if I'm wrong.
The NTSB thought that the connection with Gulfstream was sufficient to warrant its own separate section in the Ops/Human Factors report: http://www.ntsb.gov/events/2005/Pinn...its/317489.pdf Go to pg. 15.
