It is easy to jump on the bandwagon. But to those lamenting over lack of experience I ask you, where is the data? What do you have that backs up your claims. Could we stick to the hard facts guys?
All pilot bodies are governed by the laws of averages. There are good pilots, average pilots and bad pilots. Hours flown does not tell all. It is an idle hope. But I for one would love to see actually incident statistics that take into account commander experience.
I can't help but wonder if we'd all be surprised at the outcome of such a survey.
