EU AOC companies which hire ICAO pilots must be blacklisted both by pilots and passengers, at least until some formal measures will be taken, I am afraid only after accidents
This guy didn’t have a fake license - he didn’t have previous PIC time to join as PIC basically. That’s why I say ditch the logbooks - ask for previous company reference letters with hours flown sent by a representative of said Company et voilà.
