Yes, sure and if you believe that then go and do the same thing, and further to that, just please let me know which airline is hiring 300 hr pilots so I know who not to fly with.
In an emergency with an incapacitated captain, at night in thunderstorms and windshear when you low on fuel, who would you rather have sitting up front?
Personnel opinion, I would want the guy who has flown 1000 hrs of contract or charter sitting there.
