That’s TODAYS reality. And Sunny either needs to adjust to it, or you are going to wind up with right seats populated by guys/gals with a grand total of 1500 hrs, mostly CFI time in Cessna 152s with 25 hours in light twins. Good luck with that.
Hear that everybody!? ExCargoDog isn’t going to apply!!! Might as well shut the airline down. His expertise will be sorely missed.
