> both the head and copilot on this flight were relatively inexperienced on the 777

The training pilot had 3220 hours on the 777, that's pretty experienced I would say. It's probably more time than I've spent walking. It was his first flight as a training captain, though




Read the quoted bit about hour inflation in the comment from the instructor. On actual flights, the actual stick time can be on the order of T/200 or so.
