Is this a job for a C208 Copilot ??? Or a kind of CADET program?
CX are scraping the ABSOLUTE bottom of the experience pit
All over Asia they are placing crew members with those qualifications in every aircraft they operate. Just where do you think they are getting their crew from?
That includes CX (as SO's) however they will do nothing for 5 - 6 years then move to FO. CX sister airline has received (as many others have) MPL qualified crew and shove them directly into the RHS of an A330 or A320 and these young folks can have slightly over 100 hours TOTAL with NO solo time necessarily required.
Chew on that for a while ! This is what corporate geeks do - low cost at any cost.
These rules are from our "all inclusive everybody's the same" friends in the EU.

BTW. China, all by itself, needs 100k pilots over the next 20 years. Do you think they'll all be highly qualified experienced pro's ??
