1500hrs

One reason for that is a clause in the OM-A the Cockpit Crew needs 1.500 hrs expirience on Type to operate without any restriction.

If they hire Pilots with less then 1.500 hrs they have to consider the crew composition whilst they do the scheduling first and, that is more likley, they restrict Turkish Pilots from operating independantly.

I see your desperation but times not looking that good at all and our profession goes down with that many self fundet people who pay for Type rating and even line training to jump ahead of cues. The result now is that expirienced people are on the street as Pizza deliveries to repay the interest rates of the course they took, sad but true.
