"I am very concerned about the dramatic increase in helicopter accidents in Europe in recent weeks.
We must learn from this that unfortunately we cannot improve the skills of pilots and flight instructors through administrative processes in one way or another.
The current over-regulation in Europe ultimately leads to the opposite. We cannot improve the skills of pilots and in any way through thousands of pages of operations and training manuals, audits, quality systems and checks.
The solution to rapidly reducing these accidents can only be achieved through efficient, evidence-based training in modern simulators."

Apparently simulators are the only hope at preventing accidents?
