Thanks for the advice from That chinese fella and others re MA.
However my position is this if we can train a pilot to be effecient enough to fly the helicopter why can't as part of the flight test or endorsement on type incorprate something like changing the duals. Maybe some types are too tricky but the robbi is not in that category. CASA makes rule breakers out of those who try to do their best but have conflicting needs. If I have duals in and away from base and unexpectantly have a pax am I to put up with the threat to safety of his fat arse sliding over the throttle or take it out. I know there will be instances where a pilot stuffs up but so do engineers. Why does it have always to be dictictorial rulings instead of looking for a safe way to do things.
