Name 1 airline that takes zero hour cadets, makes them supervised cruise-only pilots for 3-5 years, and then puts them into the right seat of a wide-body international operation with 150-200 hours of light piston prop (zero-challenge, zero-learning, zero-experience) under their belts long forgotten from 3-5 years ago, then only to hand fly the first and last 1-2 minutes of their 10-15 hour flights just 1-2 sectors per month for 11 years...and then makes them wide-body worldwide captains with approx 150 straight-in, flight director-guided landings under their belts?
Qantas have been doing it for decades I believe.
