The FAA has never subscribed to the MCC load of crap. That was a European thing. The FAA increased the minimum to be a co-pilot to 1500 hours. I would rather have a 1500 hour banner tower than a 250 hour MCC pilot next to me.
My mistake, sorry FAA.

How about banning MCC pilots from flying into the USA?
There are blacklisted airlines, so the same could apply to inadequately trained pilots.
