Tanewha,


".......We have a check ride at least twice a year. We all love flying with QHI's and all, but please."........

Only twice? You were looky!! When I were a lad we 'ad an annual QHI check, annual IRT (more if you include upgrades or re-tests!), 6 monthly night FCS checks, a trappers visit, back-in-the-saddle checks (after main leave periods) and, if on a single engine a/c (Wx III), six monthly engine-off checks - phew!! (and I daren't think about the simulator!)

Questionably on the plus side, at least the squadron wheels knew enough about you to write a fair and accurate CR!!
