Let me run something by some of you.
So you get hired on let’s say a 737 with your CPL + exams passed aka “Frozen ATPL”
Lets say you fly for a decent company and it only takes you two years to get to the 1500hrs to “unfreeze” your ATPL.
You think this now has magically made you a much safer/better/superior pilot then you were the week before with “just your CPL”?
Really?!
Its not the paper that makes the pilot.
