working in china and complaining about non standard rt of americans at the same time is just another fine example how lost some of our guys are.
By concentrating on absolutely useless , irrelevant stuff, we at cx constantly waste a good part of our capacity ,which might be urgently needed elsewhere.
I never worked for an airline before where the pilots were so scared about doing something wrong, avoiding reporting of incidents at all cost as a result. But is it really that hard to understand that fear doesn't enhance performance ???
This training department has just one goal : to show how important there are.
But why is it an undisputable fact that there are so many airlines out there with a zero accident history AND a training department that doesn't put it's pilot under constant artificial threat ?
why is it that we have the highest upgrade/newjoiners failure rate AND well above industry average experienced guys joining at the same time ?
My suggestion would be that it is a great disadvantage that our DFO is not a pilot himself. There is simply no one within the organisation who is checking the checkers.
