Oh i forgot to say that i know a few guys with a lot less than 1000 hours,one or two of them with less than 500 hours who got job on a 747 (rating paid by the company!)I dont say thats right or wrong,safe or unsafe,anyone with basic aviation knowledge can understand,i just state the fact.
Everything is possible guys,dont make fun of people if you dont know their way of thinking or whatever agreement is made between them and a company.
