Like the replies above have stated, it is more expensive to run EBT, and it is an overall increase in sim time for training for all courses (including PPC which is now 3x3 sessions)

This rumour is now laid to rest
This really does seem to be a significant improvement over 'traditional' programs. EBT must be the way to go and I know from conferences that many are/will look at the experiences here with great interest, us included. More relevant and focused training based upon recent real world events can only be an improvement on what we currently perform, much by custom and practice.

I wish it to be succesful if only to give the regulatory bodies a wake up call.
