Exactly who are the FAA requiring to do this?
121 carriers?
135 operators?
Foreign carriers flying to the US?
If they were really concerned about this, then perhaps they should mandate more frequent sim checks. I understand that these are only mandatory once every 12 months in the US. At the other end of the spectrum (equally ridiculous), I am required to do 8 sim sessions per year by my carrier.
While we are reciting all this stuff, why not say the Lord's Prayer and sing God Save the Queen as well?
