Letsby,
Was this just AAC pilots, or across a broad spectrum?
Having said that - there can't be many 10k hours AAC pilots....
I might well agree with that. Some military pilots can tend to be a bit too full of their own perceived invulnerability, although in previous years there were a large number of pilots well over the 2,500 mark to choose from, but thankfully quite some way to go to the 10,000 hr blip. I presume you mean that these days most ex-mil pilots being looked at are in the 2,500 hr area?
A "well rounded" unit is undoubtedly the safest, with a set of good rules and policy in place. The lowest common denominator can be any one of us at times. Sounds like TC's unit has this sussed.
I'm glad to see that a lot of thought and effort is now going in to the manning experience level equation, before it was taken far too much for granted.
