Hiring Pilots
Could it be that if the airlines hired more people with experience and less people that 'just got along' they might have less problems.
You know it's all fun and games for many pilots: get to go flying, the travel and all that, but I think many forget there are a few hundred passengers in the back that actualy expect a trained, professional to get them from A - B.
I squarely put the blame on the companies that hire low timers. They don't want to pay enough to get experience and they want to hire buddies and not pilots. It may make for a pleasant work environment but it's leaving much to be desired as far as safety is concerned.
