I have a dream - a dream in which each operator is responsible enough to purchase an FNPT kitted out for their long hauls (be they Airbus, Boeing or other),and for their short hauls for that matter. My dream continues with those operators being responsible enough to get all crews into that sim a day or two before the start of their trip and sit them with a training captain and review all possible approaches and the diversions in varying automation levels. That same airline would take this training into account for the total FTL and would also remunerate.

My dream is safe, my dream would (I am sure) get quite a bit of support from crews, my dream would cost money, I think my dream is dead.
