I think a lot of these low timers breeze through training because most of them are typed in the CRJ already, or at least have taken an extensive course for the CRJ, and come to class already knowing how to handle all the automation. Instead of getting their CFI's they bought a CRJ type rating. They don't actually have enough experience under their belts to have gotten used to flying a real airplane in the real world. They can however fly the heck out of a CRJ sim. It's safe bet for companies to hire these guys because they are all but guranteed to get through training. The lack of experience probably doesn't show until after they are out on the line flying into busy airports and through rough weather. By that time, it's the captains problem. I'm not judging anyone, to each his own, just my thoughts.
