Garuda crash, copilot hours
Have just read the full report on the Garuda crash at Yogyakarta on 7th March. The copilot had 229 hours only before getting into the right hand seat of a 737. This does not warrant any further mention in the report.
In view of some criticism of his actions, it may be salutary to wonder whether he had sufficient prior experience before flying the line.
This should give some food for thought before going too far with shortened aircraft training hours.
