FlyMD-Occasionally, a pilot will die in the cockpit, that's why we need 2 qualified and trained pilots in front. Get over it.
I started aviation as a 200-hour ab initio in a 150-pax airliner: difference with today was that I got a proper line training (150 hours with a safety pilot!), and my trainers made damn sure I knew how to get the plane safely to the ground on my own before even thinking about releasing me for normal ops.
That's the problem...what if your safety pilot had a fatal heart attack? Suddenly the wisdom of using very low time pilots, with no real life experience beyond the training environment, is suspect.
