Without a solid base of fundamental airmanship you see what happens. It is the same as Air France, who does not have a reputation for having a slack training program.
Your condescending tone clearly shows your lack of maturity, experience and maturity are two things lacking in this industry and something even the best training program cannot teach.
Very well said all the way around!!
How we ensure pilots make it through those formative first thousand-ish hours can happen in a number of ways; sponsorships, stipends, airline purchased training aircraft, fixing pay (making the sacrifice of gaining experience worth it.)
The industry needs to get serious about pilot and mechanic development and retention! No more kicking the can down the road for someone else to deal with!!
