Why is it unfair what Easy Jet does? Should the pilots with less experience not be treated the same?
Is more experience = better pilot??
No!
Any airline should pick the guys they think are right. And I don't think that one "unexperienced" (which I think is the wrong expression anyway...) guy in the cockpit is bad, more risky or whatever you want to say... Looking at the left seat is different, of course. I know, it's hard to say who does a good job because you can't measure it - but that's why you shouldn't prefer the ones with more hours.
Sadly, this is how it's done nowadays. Guys in the airlines just look at the hours and you can have the best qualifications - you'll never get a chance!
