MGD,
I didn't say that there were any good aircrew officers - I am sure that there are. In my experience (on a multi-engine aircraft) the chaps who are multi-aircraft captains tend to make good leaders - those who came straight in from the fast jet world do not have a scooby about man management within a multi-crew environment. The latter tend to be very gung ho and punchy which often does not work - nor do thay have a disposition to listen to their specialists who often have much more experience in role. Questions and suggestions are often not welcomed because the FJs want to change everyone to their methods and they know best...... regardless of limitations with kit.
I am very happy about your rotary leader - I am afraid that they are very thin on the ground elsewhere.
