Different cultures
I am a Captain for a company that employs people from all over the world, and I find that the US crewmembers are more than well enough trained. I really do not care if you know weather theory, but you better know real world weather. I really don't care how a GPS works, but I want to know how to operate it, and I want to know what to do if it is inop. I am not looking for a job at Garmin building the things.
Most of the Europeans have the theory down, but very often can't relate it to real life applications. I have many a copilot saying we should fuel up somewhere because the fuel is cheaper there, not considering the 5.8% gradient we need to fly out of there. Total disconnect sometimes. The Brits have their performance down quite well, I think they all know the "value of D" by heart. It's part of their evening prayers or something.
We all have different areas we are good at is what I am saying here.
So, SizeMatters, quit being such a ..... and try to get along with people instead.
