FYI, many European carriers type their FO's in jets with as little as 300 hours. I'm sure you'll also be disgusted to know that they complete the majority of their training, all the way to frozen ATPL, at some of the academies here in the U.S. that y'all love to hate.

They also have very different operational philosophies and procedures compared to US carriers. Comparing US Airlines to most European Airlines regarding hiring standards ia about the same as using the military low-time argument. It's different here.
