I hear you both.
And the fact that the CEP comes out on top just proves my point that there is no reason why a DESO would need 4-5000 hours.
I just hear a lot that there are DESOs with more experience than DEFOs, and I can't really see why it matters that much. Besides, total time is an awfull measure of experience
After people hit 2000+ PIC I don't think there is that much difference anymore.
Hopefully you will get BPP soon
