That's a different conversation.

Many regionals today go above and beyond the FAA minimum training footprint to get people through. In the past they had the luxury of hiring only people with enough experience and natural aptitude to get by on the minimums.

Many of those folks are fine pilots once they overcome their inexperience or slow learning. Some probably are not.
