I don’t disagree with you, but whether you’ve flown the same type for a different airline, or just came from pistons, you get 25 hrs.
(I’m told that some regionals have recently increased to ~40 hrs of line training. I’d assume this has to do with the decreased experience of new first officers. It’s quite a challenge for my friends who are captains)
