whackthemole,

Well said, I couldn't agree with you more.

It is indeed shocking that the entry pilot requirements for this Major, International, Widebody jet airline are 0-100 hours. It's hard to imagine that if you have couple thousand hours of Navajo or King Air time you are WAY overqualified for this job and CX is not interested in you! Just think about that, 100% of the pilots joining this airline have ZERO experience. (Yes - 200 hours is the same as zero!). Amazing, and probably completely unprecedented for Major carrier.

There are many people that are deeply concerned about this and it is indeed a shame that those with the power are letting it happen.
