I recently obtained all of Tony Kern's books on flight discipline (no, not that kind of discipline for all you of obvious deviant minds). Why are they not more widely quoted and used?
I'm also quite surprised at the data that points to 25% or so of pilots in helicopters with stabilization equipment and autopilots don't use it, or will revert to hand flying at the first sign of trouble...
Someone said we are 50 years behind the FW community, and I'm beginning to see that as very true.
Comments please from Nick, who has just transferred to the FW community.
