E.P you are not correct re your statement about lowest AVERAGE JET experience in the world. In fact you are not even close. I have over 10,000 hours and if i was flying with a f/o with 250 hours tomorrow, that would give us 5,000 hours more than many of the COMBINED totals flying around Europe at the moment. They all do it safely and so do we. I suggest you try and stir a pot in another area! Making baseless unfounded and inaccurate statements tends to make one look like an idiot!
Qantas and Virgin are both good airlines. They both have their good points and bad. If we could dispense with all the BS from both sides of the fence (and any in between) and construct a good quality debate on relevant issues at the time, we may all get a bit out of it.
