Why is everyone so so down putting of this gig? Ever thought that maybe that FO will be upgraded to captain in due course when he/she has seen how to operate the aircraft.
Much better to train someone up in a benign environment and then captain it say leg for leg under some supervision initially. Polling the plane is the easy part, it's all the paperwork and dealing with customs out of country that opens up whole new can of worms for a newbie that hasn't seen it before. Better that someone else show him/her how to do it than find out the hard way.
At least the candidate will be paid properly.
Just my 2 cents.
