If I’m ever in Europe again I will think twice about boarding an airliner there. In my opinion, 200-300 hours is nowhere near enough to fly a transport category aircraft safely and proficiently. You won’t even have any significant instrument time in actual (instrument meteorological conditions) in only 300 hours. How can one be expected to pilot an airliner in those conditions with so little experience? I have 3,500 hours of flying time of which 250 hours or so is actual instrument time. That is typical of pilots in general, instrument time generally is 10-15% of total flight time, unless one is flying in a place like Alaska where the weather creates low visibility conditions frequently.
My question regarding captain vs. FO was does a captain (who would be the pilot in command, I imagine) require more flight time than the FO by EASA regulation (irrespective of individual airline or company policies)?
