I would feel comfortable to monitor even a low time PF as long as I can follow any of his control inputs
Right, follow up and assist if necessary, ok fine, I understand and agree. My technique would have been to do the landing, anyone who is experienced in flight instructing understands that a student can learn quite a bit without actually being the flying pilot. Again, I think she needs practice in a light airplane before she bends another airplane, had she been with me I wouldn't have given her the opportunity. Had the aircraft crashed, what opinions do you think investigators would have concerning the decision by the captain to let the FO have a go?
