I know what you're saying but this boiled down to poor handling skills on his part to be very honest. And I think if you saw what I saw, you'd be of the same opinion! He was pounding the pedals (now I mean POUNDING) back and forth and then was putting huge corrections in with the control column.
Like, when I first did the single engine flying, I found the difference between a Duchess and the Jet Sim a hell of a lot different, so much so, the difference almost caught me out, but it didn't as I managed to control it and settle it down. Now, I am not saying that I am 5h17hot or anything like it, -I was fresh from my ME IR as well- yet I didn't have that problem. I just did what I had to do and I applied the knowledge I had and that should have been no different to what he would have learnt himself.
I know that we can all have a wee bit of bad luck and things can sometimes go a bit belly up for us, but this was a bit different.
I know what you are saying about it isn't a type-rating, it isn't, but were briefed on the bits we needed to know (nothing too detailed at all)..and we had the same amount of time each to get used to the handling of the SIM (nothing too technical or detailed). Yes, it is a course about improving communication etc, but if the person you are with can't do a simple, or what I would class a simple skill from ME training, (which is required for the course) time is going to be wasted on doing what you need to be doing or what you paid to do. And I agree, the MCC is not a course to teach you how to fly...with a CPL, ME/IR, I should bloody hope you would have picked up those skills by the MCC!!!!!
I felt it was detrimental to my MCC course. I am sorry if I come across harsh, but if you witnessed what I saw and the attitude of this guy as well, you wouldn't think I was being harsh at all.
