As an experienced flying instructor and examiner of airmen I'm rapidly losing confidence in present airline pilots.
Gosh I thought you were a humble military test pilot... perhaps you should seek alternative employment as your instructing/examining skills are not producing pilots with the right abilities.

Rubbish. It is untrained and unpracticed, at sigificantly different performance, with far greater scope for error.
