Lascaille, which is where EK quite frankly is found wanting with respect to its training environment, its ethos and its narrow focus on reactive policies and procedures.
Part of the challenge transitioning from shorthaul to longhaul (who cares if you have 1 or 2 aisles) are the significant differences locally and variations in expectation from one place to the next, rinse and repeat over 100 destinations and it becomes another beast entirely.
For me, I gain confidence when I see my colleague in the right seat actively identifying issues, and having or developing a plan, rather than quoting 8.3.3.6. Blah blah blah, which says we might or possibly might not be able to breath through our nostrils. It’s a sad reflection that at EK, compliance is more desirable to many, rather than resilience and its taught that way by the training department, despite protestations to the opposite.
