STP...excuse my poor attempt at irony.

I've long argued on this forum that by lowering terms and conditions, Cathay risked attracting pilots of lower experience levels. I stand by that.....and current Company policy to henceforth hire nothing but cadet pilots, I think, makes my point.

I'm not against hiring cadets....not at all....but in an appropriate proportion to experienced pilots. To do otherwise risks diminishing our experience pool.

Hihi doesn't agree. He said "Whats to say standards have taken a hit? Where is your reference for this information, or is it just conjecture?"..."a straw man".

Is he right?
