The FAA added the 1500 rule. What will the FAA think of low houre MPL's flying transatlantic into their airspace.....
The FAA decided to change the rules, biggest mistake they ever made.
Ab initio pilots who start to fly with KLM always start as second officers on widebodies. Straight out of the KLM flightschool, 250 hrs and flying all over the world, also in US airspace. Has been going on for years, no problems at all.

In Europe some low hour pilots get a chance to start their career on a jet. The training they recieve before their first commercial flight is superb and have you seen any accidents in Europe because of lack of experience? I certainly haven't. I dare to say Europe is the safest place in the world with regard to aviation safety because of the high standard of training ( especially in western Europe )
