And when they fly RHS they receive FO payment? I really doubt that.
If so,what kind of payment plan they'll have? And what will be the reason for doing this?
Some low cost carriers I know of, have very low experienced FO's,even only 200 hrs TT, very poor paid.They took the job in order to accumulate experience.
Instead of hiring those guys,why hire experienced capt,with a much bigger salary?
Maybe hiring not so experienced cpt,with maybe 2000 hrs on Cesna,and less then 300 hrs on airliners..hmm....If this is the case,I doubt they'll fly safe for a long time..
And then ,maybe more pax will change their understanding of what low cost really is, for most of the LCC:low training also,besides, eventually low maintainance?
then,the low cost tickets will sound less apealing,i guess.
