You can not assume that everyone who fails helicopter training is worthy of a place on multis
Hang on a minute! If a guy is chopped on a complex helicopter OCU with 100-odd hours on a 2-engine, multi-crew, fully DASS'd helicopter...... should that not be an overwhelming qualification for an immediate restream to short-MEXO? (I think it should - the only thing missing is asymetric-thrust GH skills, and that should not be a problem with 200+ helicopter time)
I know of many pilots U/T who have been thrown out of the branch when their skills should have merited them a second bite of the cherry. Why should the experience mentioned in the paragraph above be thrown away in favour of some lemon who just scrapes through EFT and gets a long-METS course?
