Wizz give 320 commands to kids with 3,500 TT and their network is much more demanding than anything close to Australia.
Typical inferiority complex, in over complicating a simple thing to justify one’s superiority.
I have not met an Australian pilot in a long time who thinks we’re superior. I’m not sure what you’re on about there. Having trained pilots for a dozen airlines from 4 continents, I got a good look at the types of people who learn to fly from different countries. That was certainly an eye opener and led me to never flying on certain carriers.
