oh, an another little note: I am not condeming, nor condoning, but while we in the states moan about 300 hours pilots (SIC), the FAA approves of any commercial pilot (amel) being SIC. Additionallly, consider Quatus and thier minimums for Direct Entry Captains

It's their mins for second officers (see my post above). Second officers are "relief pilots" and do nothing but occupy a seat to satisfy the regs on overwater crossings.

Do SOs at QANTAS move up to FO or are they stuck as SOs? If so, how do they continue to accumulate flight time?

I do not know how long it takes them to become a full fledged FO.
