My question is this. Why First Officers must hold a College or University Degree/Diploma (minimum 2 year course)???????

I have the rating and I have the hours????? and I dont mind commuting

Aussie

well clearly you have the exp. without having the degree, so you dont need the degree to fly the NG.... im guessing its an additional req because of the supply vs demand thing again... to many pilots today applying for the job, so they use it to cut the numbers perhaps...
