Joe Wannebe is paying for a service namely a "jet transport type rating" and "First Officer Experience during Airline Passenger operations". No type rating or no line experience would be a breach of contract unless there is unequivical failure to meet training standards, thus there has to be strong pressure on the TRI's to get marginal pilots through. Furthermore since this is a purely profit making venture terminating anyones training will immediately and directly effect tha TRO's bottom line. Bottom line: it is IMPOSSIBLE to maintain training standards in such an environment.
