Case in point is how Delta dropped its degree requirement. What's that tell us...it's a dawg fight hiring pilots.
This was more than a paper idea. Pre-covid, there were FOs teaching international procedures to large cabin. It’s a 3 day course during large cabin aircraft initial training. I don’t know who’s teaching Int’l Proc now or if FOs are still doing it post covid.
I believe an FO was also being used for teaching systems in one of the fleets. Not 100% on that since they weren’t in my fleet.
