The cadet programs in Europe will put a new pilot in a 737/A230 (or similar) rhs with somewhere between 200 and 300 hours. It is possible, but not common, for the guy who pays his own way to do the same.

These hours are similar to those held by a military pilot on reaching their first squadron (I had about 330 on reaching mine - but I'd been through both the fast jet and multi engine training programs) . I don't hear people suggesting that those guys are a problem, and I don't see why they should be a problem for us - as long as the training, and future supervision, is adequate.
