OK, how much does the extra insurance cost?
The program according to JAR-OPS is the same for high-experienced and low-experienced. But nobody takes a low because of insurance reasons. Even though the low guy might be much better and safer than quite some of the so-called experienced guys (as I had to find out in some of my screening sessions, and that's not my opinion but the saying of the evaluators).
I won't get hours logged because I don't have enough logged. I don't have enough hours logged, because nobody gives me the chance to log hours, so I won't get hours logged.
Any idea how to get out of this catch-22?
It really starts to suck!
