Why don't unions start putting requirements in their contracts that any FO's hired will be required to have X qualifications?
We tried to do something very similar at XJT during the beginning of Contract 04 negotiations. I don't remember the specifics but, it was to be a flight time requirement for upgrade. The idea was that with the up-coming short upgrades the company would have to hire more experienced pilots thereby helping us make the FO pay scales higher. However, it turned out to be a PITA to negotiate.
