I’m not condoning the P2F schemes far from it I disagree with them and think all airlines should encourage a good mix of pilots from different backgrounds, but what I am annoyed at is the Incompetent cadet bashing….okay some are good some not so good, just like anywhere (why is it our counterparts often tell horror stories of dangerous Turbo prop captains in their previous airlines who won’t ever move onto anything bigger…does this make all turbo prop guys dangerous?? But the point I want to make is let’s say perception has us believe BA pilots ‘are the best’ why aren’t we bashing BA guys since BA used to pump out ‘cadets’ like a factory and put them straight onto a jet with 200hrs!! Forget about P2F, were cadet bashing here so let’s start a BA cadets and ex cadets who are captains can’t land/are a liability thread. I’m not saying the cadet route is the best, nor TP, nor military…it’s just a different route. P2F sucks not necessary the guys ability.
