Its been my opinion for over a decade that the entire airline pilot recruitment, training and checking program is not fit for purpose. And then there's flight time limitations and fatigue. Trouble is, the guys in charge - and you know who you are - remain blissfully unconcerned. I hope they enjoy their pensions.
As an ex Airbus TRE and base trainer I have to agree. I was pleased to leave the system when I saw the writing on the wall.

Sad but true.
