Yeah but I've been a flying instructor for Integrated and Modular and plain old PPL.
In each job all I have been paid to do is get Bloggs though his CPL skilltest and then his IR. Thats it. That's all the student wants, thats all the CFI wants.
It really doesn't matter how the training is organised. The test is the same so the ability has to be same or else a FAIL.
There was no added input for Integrated students. How could we? None of the instructors had ever been airline pilots at that stage. Now that I have been one for 7 years and a Skipper for 2 I now fly with Modular and Integrated first officers. I have taught at both small schools and one of the big three and have mates who have done the same.
Its bollocks.
An integrated student knows diddly squat what a modular student does.
Bottom line.
Fact.
Cheers
