experience doesnt count because a copilot with 3000h or 200h on the bus do the same task, same SOP, same call out,...
But not the same SA, knowledge, capacity, CRM, tact, confidence, tolerance and timely assertiveness - and that is when everything is working properly.

Can anybody really say that their competancy is same with a few thousand hours compared to their first year?

Look at two Ryanair incidents that I am sure would ot have happened with an experienced F/O, the Captain incapacitation in Italy and the GPWS incident over Cork.
