A321 runway excursion Lyon.
The PM called out “Leave it“ several times and applied a succession of harder nose- down inputs (1/2 pitch down) until touchdown. Meanwhile, the PF maintained a hard nose-up input (1/2 pitch up on average). The resulting input was nose up. During this phase, the synthetic voice called out “DUAL INPUT“.

150 hours is enough for a CPL, many students leave training school with a frozen ATPL at under 200 hours ready to find a job and a type rating.
A type rating unfreezes the ATPL, this is part of the "on the job" training in the RH seat.
The USA has unilaterally imposed a 1500 hour minimum for carrying passengers, this is a controversial subject because it puts a very big roadblock in the normal career progression and is causing pilot shortages in the USA. Basically a daft kneejerk reaction by politicians in response to the Colgan Air crash.

The ATPL is not REQUIRED until you want to move to the LH seat.
Incidentally, there are a few gotchas in building those multipilot hours, for example the DHC6 Twotter is most often flown with 2 pilots but it is certificated for single pilot operation so those hours may not count, depending on the jurisdiction, the phase of the moon and the jobsworth credentials of the guy checking qualifications.

What can EASA do with a failing Aviation Authority
I don't know if things at HCAA have improved in the intervening years ... but this report is pretty damming .... what can EASA do if a member state's AA isn't working properly?
quotes from the BEA report:
3.2 Causes of the Accident
the absence of suitable initial oversight which made it impossible for the HCAA to focus on the predictable potential operational weaknesses of Hermes Airlines
4 Safety Recommendations
The HCAA implement an appropriate oversight programme for Hermes Airlines, specifically based on the risks identified during the investigation. [Recommendation FRAN-2015-028]

Glad that is no longer possible here in the US.

Hermes Airlines officials explained that because of the «low cost» profile of the operator, the recruitment of young inexperienced copilots was also economically more interesting than that of experienced copilots.

It SHOULD be the role of the pax, RAT5. Unfortunately, ..no, make that outrageously, many low cost carriers are somehow allowed by supine regulators to have very inexperienced trainee pilots, not employed by the airline, paying to sit in the right hand seat to be trained. It will be interesting to hear if that was the case here.
