I disagree to the gentleman who said experience equals more safety. Off course a brand new pilot with just a couple of hundreds hrs there is a potential higher risk BUT as they reach 1000 - 2000 hrs safety becomes more to a personal integrity and the will to follow SOPS, reading and refreshing up on manuals and memory items etc. I flew with many old and highly experienced captains who is not doing that and some do. My point is that after you reach a treshold of lets say 1500 hr on type it is more a personal thing on how structural and professional each pilot behave in the cockpit, you can not just look blindly on how many hrs he got in the sky.
