Yup

Absolutely. It is a generational shift in our business and you will see more and more accidents like this. The blind leading he blind.

The only time you see a well qualified copilot nowadays is when you see one that has flown freight at night single pilot. That does not happen with the Ab Initio pilots. I do not care if they came from Gulfstream Academy or Oxford. They still need to get some experience in real world flying.
