Tosh?

Kungfu Panda. I ask the question because john smith referred to my quote "as tosh". Low hour pilots have been hired extensively ahead of experienced pilots because they have been and are,far more easily exploited and have been and continue to be complicit in these "pay to fly" schemes, that is without question. Therefore they (low houred"pilots" or "cadets" or any other name you can think) have been a major part of the demise of the professional pilot, so my previous post is not "tosh". Kung fu panda , you raise a very good point that experience does promote greater safety that is why there are minimum hours set to Captain a multi crew aircraft. Logically safety must reduced by flooding an airline with inexperienced pilots in the right seat.
