Oztranaut ,
I don’t disagree that 200 hundred hour cadets deserve a chance , the big difference is that when I had 200 Hours in my logbook I was still flying a Cessna 172 not a jumbo . A heavily laden jumbo freighter is a very different beast to a Cessna . I blame the Capt for this accident , if the wind was gusting as much as they stated he should have taken over ,either way this is on him
its not about above average skills it’s about experience ,something that only comes with higher hours And more exposure
