I am glad to hear hat your airline is taking the training seriously. The US generally has less "philosophical problems " with following computers advices that the " old Europe " .
However where it comes down to the real test in real life , olds habits die hard. :
incidentally in a carbon-copy of the Ueberlingen scenario that occurred in 2005 over France, the pilot that decided to follow the ATC clearance instead of the RA was not Russian, but a US trained 767 Captain of one of the major US carriers.
