I think the argument he’s making is that anyone with 1000 hours of 121 time can upgrade. No waiting around.

Plus 2500 tt. Which the RATP won’t have. The question is how long did it take to get those 1000 hours?

At OO you can get 1000 121 as quick as humanly possible if you’re trying

That can be said about any airline.

Hahaha, is that right? Tell that to some of the Endeavour / PSA / Envoy / PDT / AW guys flying as low as 20 hours a month on reserve.

Intriguing and thought provoking.......

Just like.....

Alien vs Predator
Curly vs Shemp
Riddle vs Hamburger University
Latex vs Sheepskins

Yeesh........

If you’re flying 20 hours a month at ZW you’re doing it by choice. I haven’t been below 90 hours block since I started (excluding training or recurrent).

YX has had almost 50% failure rate for upgrades last fall because people weren’t ready. Don’t make the jump until you feel 100% confident.
