Suppose the insurance companies insist on a minimum 1,000 hours flying experience for all First Officers, as they did when I started out.
All very well, but how on earth would you satisfy the demand for pilots if you had to wait several years for them to gain the shortfall in hours after leaving their Flight Academy with only minimal experience
exactly how it was done before....take guys with experience
So that us lot with thousands of hours don't lose out to some punk who paid his way into a job
its not a career if you have paid for it, its a hobby....
