Reintroducing the airline simulator evaluation at larger carriers might mitigate some of the issues of late. ie: improper stall recoveries, poor judgement. I'm aware of a few instances where pilots who have no business in this industry were allowed to continue for years thereby endangering the flying public (and you and I). These same people succesfully interviewed at legacies by virtue of their PIC experience and subsequently experienced great difficulty during their training. The fact that someone happens to be a regional captain does not make them eminently qualified for career progression. Unfortunately, economics dictate the current state of affairs. I'm sure every current scooter trash PIC driver will disagree... Just an observation from a currently furloughed bystander.
