If airlines in Europe can
safely operate the 737s day in and day out with 150/200h cadets in the RHS, then there's really no excuse.
Look at the UTAir 737-800 overrun in Sochi in 2018. Crew (13,000 hours each) disregarded both predictive and reactive windshear warnings, crossed the threshold at Vref+23. Aircraft touched down 1285m from runway threshold and reverser were deployed about 20s later when the aircraft was 2690m from the threshold (LDA 2895m).
How can any manufacturer improve their aircraft to prevent this kind of events, which is how a lot of 737-800 overruns look like?
