But if all "internals" had to have their applications included with "externals" , and there are say 650 selected for tests from 2500 applicants
The vast majority of Qlink guys & a lot of other internals wouldn't even get a test & if they did , they would have to get 4/5 not 1/5
In probability terms an "internal" has 10 times the chance of joining Mainline
To pretend it is all an objective even assessment of background/talent/abilities across both internals & externals is complete nonsense
What do you mean it's not how the US airlines do it? They literally have a
FLOW program which guarantees (Yes, guarantees, which is not even close to what happens in Australia) from the regionals to the major. They do exactly what you are so heavily against.
You have no credible evidence to suggest any of your claims about people internally not being suitable for the role and are just spitting out random numbers which are factually incorrect.
Also, you clearly have never operated with ex-military/high jet time guys, some of them have the attitudes that the introduction of CRM and HF training decades ago was designed to get rid of.
