Red thats utter rubbish even if you don`t run a pay to fly scheme you still have to line train them.

Normally they come out of type rating then get given to a line training captains until they are up to standard. Then they are let loose with normal line pilots.

All done with pax down the back.

Normally with first job commercial pilots personally with me they do the majority of the landings until they are up to standard.

Normally they arrive with an hour and 6 landings in the aircraft when the line trainer starts working with them.
