I second this, unfortunately.
I sat js recently on a DEC on OE and it was sketchy as hell.
I was frankly mad by the time we landed, as the bugger was so far behind the airplane it was incompressible that this tool was going to be on the line within weeks beside a new guy straight off IOE.
All we need as an industry is a crater and the public catching wind of how green the dude with four stripes might be.
