Compared to another lowtimer, what do you think pax would prefer. The guy with 20 hours of MCC + 40TR hours(around 260 total with 60MCC) or the guy with 60MCC and 60TR hours? (240 total with at least 120 MCC).
Just a question?
Please don't compare new MPL pilots with experienced CPL pilots.
I think that if the passenger really knew what they were talking about they would prefer the fATPL over the MPL without question. Real experience is priceless. TR sims are very good and incredibly real but they are just 'enough' to allow someone to go on and learn on the job. Real experience is priceless.
You ask a passenger what they would prefer, someone with a whole load of simulator time and very little time in an actual aeroplane OR someone who has done all their training up to IR in an real aeroplane,with real weather, real problems and real environmental stressors (i.e. noise, sunshine, smell, vibration, time constraints).
