Rather interesting this. Based on 2 minutes per flight and 12,000 flights, this is only 400 hours, nothing at all in comparison to most commercial pilots i'm sure. (Granted he would have flown other longer routes etc and thus i'm sure has a more impressive log book than 400 hours...)

However, surely at 12,000 take offs and landings (plus) there wouldn't be to many more experienced commercial pilots out there.

Cheers
