As it happens Tourist, I know quite well how much it costs. The direction VS has taken, however much spin/media BS and fluffing by Ctc - it will be cheaper/less cost labour than hiring a direct entry experienced Airbus/Boeing or even Ntr several thousand hour chap or girl off the street. Is there any point in defending or supporting the idea that an experienced pilot could be cost beneficial to an international carrier these days when there is a glut of 150hour heroes ?
