Ouzo, I suggest that you go back and look at the title of the thread, it’s ‘time to command’, NOT 'number of hours'.
The fact that the aforementioned person has that amount of experience is neither here nor there. What is relevant is that of those 2700 hours, about 2500 of them are with easyJet on the B737-300. When it comes down to calculating ‘factored’ hours (as easyJet do) it’s probably the same as someone whose got maybe 4 or 5 thousand from flying other types of aircraft in other types of environments.
Also on the command course with him was another guy with similar experience whose parentage is in no way related to CTC, nor anything to do with easyJet. So how do you suggest he got there?
They both had to go through the same command selection process as everyone else. Maybe it’s the fact that he’s most likely to have his fourth bar before his 25th birthday that’s upsetting you?
I suggest that you get down to McDonalds and ask them to give you some money for that f***ing huge chip that you’ve got on your shoulder.
