The real reason that these problems such as ass backwards thinking in how training is conducted exist in aviation is " inertia " .
As in bureaucratic inertia.
Every aviation government agency on earth has the same dumb assed myopic system in place whereby they think that they can put in place a training standard that will guarantee a high quality product trained by instructors who are barely beyond the student stage themselves....
.....it is so easy to just go along with the status quo and remain stuck in the cave dwelling era as far as making changes to the system goes...hell it is human nature..these guys get paid regardless of what happens so why change things?
I have found the only real difference in the way things are done in aviation from country to country is each country sort of pretends to be different but when you look at the general efficiency they are all the same except for the acronyms.
