This goes with the captains, too... what right does a 1500 hr. seminole instructor have to be in command of a turboprop/jet?
I haven't heard any rumors about this incident nor am I trying to start any, i'm just saying that a lot worse is in the future if the current hiring scheme keeps going on...
STEWIE quit your Bit ch ing...
Tell me how many hours we give our Fighter Pilots before we cut them Loose to fly Multi Million dollar aircraft SOLO... the case for the 250 hour wonder pilot has been beaten to Death,, I say it already and I will say it again,, Ill take a Low time person with quality time than a high time person with bad habits and not so good quality time..
