Here we go with the "pay for training" debate...I think 1500 Hrs for a 121 crewmember is a good idea...
What happened to flight instructing, banner towing, night freight/checks to bank, sighteeing tours, etc, to earn your stripes????
This is not an argument pro/con about pay for training...just my viewpoint that you can't "buy" the experience needed to fly my family commercially...
