Pilot information
The Captain held an Air Transport Pilot (Aeroplane) Licence with a total of 9,775 hours, of which about 4,280 hours were on the A320.
The FO held a Commercial Pilot (Aeroplane) Licence with a total of 1,966 hours, of which about 300 hours were on the A320.
So, the FO had Five times the hours of a 'Pay to Fly' wallah!

Unstabilised approach; landing checklist not complete by 300 feet. What was going on? By most company SOPs, with the FO as PF, the 'Go Around' should have been performed at 1,000' AAL.

Training? Standards? Who is in charge? Where is our profession going?
