Of course not. Neither are there any pilots in Europe less qualified than LH. Read my post again.

Only a handfull of airlines actually pay for cadets training. The majority of pilots need to pay for their training themselves. When a company offers to pay for your training then everyone will naturally apply. Thats a lot of people. As a result only a very small minority are picked. If seven people applied for seven openings at LH, and they all met the legal requirements for becoming a pilot, then the pass rate would be 100% wouldn't it? Hundereds of people apply for this scheme and there are only limited places, so LH can only accept a very small percent, 7, in actual fact!

Its the same deal with CTC Mc Alpine. The pass rate is very small. No there no more qualified than anyother pilot either.
