Anyone paying for a typerating today must be desperate.And going to this lot and not Ezy, Ryr or major lowcost does tell me a bit about the basic skill of the candidate.

By the way something the trainers are moaning about on a regular basis.
The poor level of cadets today, that is.
Something I can confirm.I never fly with anyone anymore that has the big picture, ever. ( In the old days that was one of the ways of knowing " Is he ready for command?")
Slowly going down over the last 4 to 5 years.
And big pressure to upgrade to cpt as soon as they approach 3000hrs.
I am not surprised we see accidents like this, it being Cpt induced or Cadet induced.

Happy Landings Chaps.
Gone fishing
