With the current state of pilot shortages seeing people moving to the right hand seat of an airline with a fraction of the experience and minimal training( 'cause they have to pay for it) compared to before "lowcosts", a similar thing is happening with movements to the left seat. This is what you get.
I was going to say.....if you pay peanuts...you get.....but, these days it appears that VB is the better payer therefore, where are the monkeys going ?To the lower paying lowcosts? Lowest of the low?
You know there were reasons for having expensive training departments and all the overheads of a "traditional" ( was going to say "real") airline.They needed them to produce the standards and the service. Even if there was wastage.

That was with fewer duty hours.What happens to standards when workload increases?
