Anyone who can seriously sit here and say they would rather have a kid with 200 hrs flying them from A to B than an experienced pilot is full of ****.
Anyone who can seriously sit here and say anyone has previously said that they would
prefer a 200 hour cadet to an experienced pilot, is himself full of the same material.
What has been said (or inferred) previously is that cadet systems are not inherently dangerous. Properly run and resourced they do work. Also has been said. Cadet systems are not required in this country due to the large pool of experienced pilots.
The point of it all is. If you wish to make, to the general public, an argument about the evil nature of J* plan, make sure it is based on sustainable fact. If you do not, you will lose all credibility with the target audience, and the outcome will not be what you are seeking, (with a great deal of support and empathy if I might add).
Do yourself a favor and reread the posts by those who have bothered to take a little time to lend a bit of advice, based on real world experience. Methinks we are in heated agreement on the core issues.
