Incidentreport
Wouldn't say I'm in the know with Origin.
In fact I wouldn't think anybody, other than those in Origin management (and only a few of them) know how they choose their pilots.
The last groundcourse had a bunch of guys all with well over 1000 hrs and 300 + multi. However in the past they have had people with as little as 650 TT and 25 multi.
I think it is more a case of who you know, and how much you are willing to grease, make calls, throw bags, check in pax etc
Good Luck
