Wow, All pilots with less than the "customary" 1500 hours are "inexperienced" Did the person writing this do a little checking and see what the standard was just a few years ago in the industry? no, probably not. Lets raise the minimums to make it much more difficult for aspiring pilots to get an interview and get hired then complain when fewer pilots have the required hours..
