in my last airline...

Please enlighten us with your career path...Flight instructor with 200 hours?
Or would you prefer all pilots to fly cargo until reaching the 1500 hours mark?Hope the cargo market picks up then.....in europe at least.
Do you believe a 1500 hour cargo pilot is of a better standard then a 200 hour greener than green?Sometimes yes sometimes no.
Your mission is impossible...
It is the CAA which signs off Commercial pilot licenses not the airlines, it is their duty to make sure a pilot is competent enough or not.
The airline should make sure their new f/o pilots 200 hours or 5000 hours ones
are up to the job via the interview sim check,the type rating and line training.
