I do sympathise with your situation.
What I am trying to point out is your plight is welcome by many Ppruners and alluding to difficulties over prejudice will only fuel this joy.
Why does Virgin blue have a propensity for 1500 hour pilots?
Because they will welcome the job, they are not underpaid like exCX exAN exEK in the position and consequently will pose little maintenance as employees and pose little industrial trouble.
The risk is their experience. This is has no doubt been weighed up commercially as a factor of a benign air environment!
Smart management really. Their skill at keeping wages down and morale up groundbreaking.
I do worry that Air Services has turned a blind eye to the fact that such inexperienced pilots receive such inadequete endorsement training.
Before a young
VB 737 pilot admirably leaps to his companies defence, I will add the place is leaking like a sieve! The leakers have had exposure to airline ops worldwide and the appraisal balanced.
