How the hell is a low time pilot supposed to get experience when he can't get a placement with a company due to lack of hours.
I agree that the incompetents should be weeded out but what if a 200 hour instructor comes along, is a natural pilot and has absolutely no problem teaching a student to fly and pass the exams. Should he be unemployed because of his low hours. What about the scenario of the more hours you spend in the air, the more bad habits you get into? You must be so lucky to have so much money, or wealthy parents. Able to go out and buy a helicopter, build your hours up for free then gripe on about low time inexperienced pilots. If not, the forces is an option for free flying. So which is it?
Weren't you a low time pilot?
