I think most of this type of discussion is just "alarmist" noise.At the very early stages of the low hours/freshly minted pilots career, there is certainly a higher than normal element of risk, that is for sure, however once they break through their first 1000 hours or so they are all at very similar levels of ability as pilots who come from more traditional routes to a jet cockpit.Once they get to the command level, they are just as good as anyone, it is not necessary to have thousands of GA hours to reach a Jet PIC position.That is rubbish.Ive personally trained many of them on to big jets and many have reached command now, quite effortlessly, Peter BJ.
