You want to buy a bunch of new jets and turn them over to a cadre of ‘nuggets’ in the left seat?
It would be a recipe for disaster to spend all that money a throw a bunch of low time, inexperienced captains out there to operate in an unfamiliar regime -under all weather conditions.
In our case, the ‘customers’ were only trusting their 'boxes' to us. . NOT their lives. I know the traveling public is generally ignorant, but in this case they are planting their keister in the seats . . NOT their Priority One Letter. SO . . from a PR standpoint . . as well as common sense . . it makes good sense. Too bad they won’t hire ‘over 60’ types . . I haven’t met a virgin in years. <g>
