Excellent point and the point I made about the Caenarfon accident--authorisation, which should contain an element of advice from a responsible experienced pilot
Advice is great. Authorisation is more than advice, it's permission. It was the culture of authorisation that killed BK's crew at Blackpool. Whatever the CFI authorised, the pilot in command accepted, as he wasn't used to making his own decisions. So stop being a nanny and start letting pilots exercise the privileges of their licence to be the commander of an aircraft.
