Yes probably better at both so let’s get lots more, great plan!


But ...........unfortunately that’s not what we do most of the time!

If you’re down to manual handling and doing raw data then you’ll probably be quite stressed!
When stress increases we naturally revert to past experience, if past experience is just light turbo props flying manually and being epic at flying a raw data approach it ain’t going to help much!
You’ll be relying on the person next to you to carry you. If that person hasn’t got much experience (as is becoming increasingly common) it could go pear shaped even quicker!
Everyone has to start somewhere but remember we fly worldwide so the learning process is much longer and more complex than most turboprop guys will have been used too. Having some really experienced pilots next to you helps immensely as you learn the ropes. The problem is that EK doesn’t seem to appreciate this - but that’s another thread!
