Question: How are these new pilots going to start a career and land a first job when NO airline will hire them, due to no experience? How are they going to get this experience? This is how it is nowadays. So, their option is P2F and LT. Give me just one other way for them to go?
What about waiting until airlines asking for lower minimums, which is gonna happen if they find nobody else, and in the meanwhile, trying to find something else....yeah I know what you´re thinking....but maybe you should take a look regarding the new minimum requirements right now in US....you don´t even need the type rating...
This is what it is nowadays, cause the new pilots are willing and eager to accept such conditions.Period.
It will stop when all the pilots stop paying this kind of schemes or when the old pilots start to fight against those P2F guys in order to protect their conditions.
