Does it really matter which country we are training in, is it not the purpose of instructors to train students to be safe and efficent pilots?

I have not done intially twin training for a few years but I used to demonstrate Vmca by locking the rudder at say Vmca +10 and put a lot of emphasis on recognising and recovery.I am now a check and training captain for a large company on turbine engined aircraft and on intial endorsment on type I still do the same.

This is a good diccussion, it is upto us in the industry to discuss with the local CAA, FAA or which ever body we fall under our concerns in order to improve safety.I have heard people say they are not approachable, you will be suprised.
