Please correct me if im wrong.
I always assumed Qantas entry criteria were so low so they could lock a low time, low experienced pilot as SO and FO in for the many, many boring years of flying for the Qantas because they had no real command time of their own to apply for a better gig.
As opposed to going bush, doing the regionals, getting a command and then having your choice of anywhere in the world. i personally like choices and would prefer to have more than one type in my logbook when i die.
allow me to correct you

Plenty of Bush bashers with stacks of regional time and more logbooks stamps than Australia post join Qf. Crew from all walks of life.
