Maybe a bit of SIM training events may have picked this up?
Seems Boeing are way behind the 8 ball on the reports released in the last week - Good chance they are also well behind the 8 on training required.
Sloppy, sloppy, sloppy is a very big understatement it seems.
What news will tomorrow bring?
