MPL message here somewhere??
Not that I can see. Cadets, yes MPL, No.

I ask again: which operators?
I have no doubt that, with a properly constructed MPL course (a work in progress) a "potential" airline pilot will be far better prepared for his/ her or its first job, than a "traditionally" trained 200h or so pilot with CPL/IR/very bare multi and frozen ATPL subjects.
You don't say?!
But compare your MPL with a ATPL 1500hr-turbine experienced ex-FO (or probably ex-captain). I know which one I want in my RHS. When future AF447s are full of cheap, manipulated MPLs, the pax will stand even less of a chance than they did in 2009.
