Ha ha, where I operate, that's the least of their worries, they think nothing of completely blocking off their windscreen at 5000 ft in the climb. What could go wrong?At least if you could get some of the newer guys to quit saying "....WITH YOU...." to center it would at least help with the appearance of inexperience.
What regionals have ASAP? I'd think that would be a just a few....
Just last month we (the industry) had a new regional capt on a very heavily automated airplane have to make 4 tries to get into an airport.....VFR Wx was clear and 10 miles with light wind and he missed three times before managing to figure out how to get the thing on the ground. The F/O was a newbie.
I think that we are going to start seeing smoking holes unless the industry stops the current hiring practices.
T-Prop, not really sure where you're coming from, the vast majority of large European airlines have cadet programs in place, they work well, Air Lingus, BA, Qantas. I could be wrong but I think BA's CEO is a former cadet. Take it from the poster below, there is fierce competition to be accepted into the program from the beginning, maybe similar to military aviation training?
Please tell me how much you know about the flying over here. By the way, in the program here, they are not allowed to move to the left seat until they are 34 years old, by that time they have about ten years of experience,
It's funny you mention that, last month I was flying along and noticed the FO gettting all giddy, I asked him what was up, he told me he had never been to FL390 before, on another flight the FO saw me go through the QRH to do some balancing, he had never seen anyone balance fuel before!

If these guys would quit saying ".....with you...." to ATC, at least they'd SOUND more experienced.
Which regionals training is under an FAA approved AQP program?
Let me know when you give up on this brain teaser...... cause I think there is still only one.
