Any United airplane crash with a FO that had 250 hrs? Or 1,500?

If you want to make a fair comparison, you should ask if either pilot had 1500 hours and an ATP when they were hired as opposed to when they crashed. Because that's what the atp rules requires now.

How many years was it for the colgan captain? Again, the atp rule came about because of that accident. So that's the yardstick to make comparisons by.

You think a regional pilot carrying passengers with United, Delta and American painted on the plane are somehow not qualifed to fly at the legacies?
Take a second to think about what you wrote.
Did you go to college? Maybe take a logic class online.
