People, I have already commented on another thread in detail so I will not go into details here.
A Multi Crew Cooperation course, is not about flying a aircraft. It is about working as a team.
I am a line pilot on the 737 and have been there. I have no argument with any of the training organisations mentioned.
To believe that it is all about hand flying without flight directors on is missing the point.
You get 20 hours in the sim, 10 each as PF. then you wait for months for that first interview. You will have forgotten everything about flying a jet. You would be better off having a sim a few days before. If I have a week or two off, it takes me a short time to get into the swing of things and I do this for a living. You may have 10 hours, with failures etc thrown in, so not much real stick and rudder.
However I am talking to a brick wall....
So I am off to work, Italy today. Good luck everyone and I hope to hear you in the sky
