And the point is that if WE, AS EXPERIENCED PILOTS owned our own jets, we wouldn't do what these owners and small operators are doing. This legislation would put the regulations in line with what a SMART owner operator should be doing. If those owners and business owners want to plop a 250 hour pilot in their cockpits to save a buck and let our future airline pilots practice with their lives in the cabin, so be it.
ualdriver...Didn't United hire some 350 hour pilots to "check a box"? This is a step in the right direction, but I doubt ALPA will dare bring this issue up with regards to affirmative action and political correctness...
