Chintito, mate forgetit. They are so up tight, it's a wonder their bums don't fall off. Now on the first page of pilot recuitment they ask for this:
"737 Rated First Officers - Pilots who have at least 1,500 hours JAR 25 experience and 500 hours total time on the B737-300 to 900 series with an established airline may be considered for a First Officer’s position."
Even BA don't do that!
Breakbreak, Yes i fly a new, (few months old, not RYR) 800, with a glass cockpit. It is easier, however when the side peels off an aircraft, Quantas, then we really do earn our money. I wish that people would realise that small point and help the rest of us fight for our rights.
When a Doctor makes a mistake the patient dies, when a Attorneymakes a mistake his client dies, when a Pilot makes a mistake He dies. Just a thought
