Firstly I am not an airline pilot so please excuse my ignorance.
How come a guy can complete RAAF pilots course with 200 odd hours and then be thrown into the right seat of a C17, A330, 737, C130, et al. Many of which operate in very demanding environments. A course mate of mine quite a few years ago went straight from course to flying a Falcon 900 with the PM on board!
Surely, if the selection, training and supervision is appropriate, and a sound progression plan is in place whats the problem?
Any hooo.....
