The simulator sessions are programmed to deal with what is in the regulations (engine failure, engine fire etc…) and not much else as there is no spare time
An interesting but soft point (little data).

On the one hand I read opinions from pilots who claim to understand and know how to handle loss of air data in turbulence. This seemingly contradicts the claim of inadequate training.


If something is missing in the training we need understand where and how to fix it.

It's probably too early to conclude this without more data including what happened in this accident.

I'm a fan of simulators but having lost arguments in the past about nice-to-have, training we have to face the reality of prioritization and availability of pilots for unique training.
