Hello Banana Joe,
This is very true. It’s much more difficult nowdays. It was already not that easy 10 years ago.
I’m not pointing fingers at pilots jumping straight on Jet. If my first job was on a 737 or 320, I would take it immediately. But I had the chance to do something else and I’m glad I did it and would recommend any new fellow pilots not to rush on airliners as it’s pretty cool and satisfying to do different kinds of flying.
