Yes, I know this last post was 5 years ago but it is a slow night and Alan Zymer will not go away.
Many, many, many years ago, there was a couple of applicants applying to ANZ. App 1 had a shiny new Commercial, IR and 300 hour on a 172. App 2 had 3,000+ SIngle Pilot time on the Mt Cook PA31 (said it was many years ago). App 1 was welcomed with open arms. App 2 was told "Laddie, you need to go and get a few more hours and then try again". Ok, it wasn't the actual quote but that was the gist of what he was told.
