That EXACT point was brought up on at another place I read.

Doesn't matter if you're a pilot with a substandard training record and documented failures flying for a "regional" airline, OR the entire crew of a heavy/widebody jet at a European legacy carrier with tons of experience under your belt.

Both types can get people killed just as quickly.
