Proper screening prior to training for ALTP, Type Rating and extensive route training with Training Capts.
All RHS co-pilots with BA are trained from the start of Route Traiing for two pilot ops.
What Airline do you fly for which allows such ill equipped co-pilots on public transport flights?
Do you not have any feedback to your obviously poor training set up?
I'd like to avoid that company!!
That is exactly what I said. Cadet programs only for established and proven training organization with high selection standard. Unfortunately there is an underworld of smaller outfit whose main business is putting people that should never be in a cockpit..in a cockpit...for cash.
