Hmm. Im flying for a large european carrier and i never saw such poor abilities which were described in this post. If i was asked, i´d say that 80% of my approaches are flown raw data by hand with automatics off in about F100. Moreover I try to fly nonprecision as much as i can. Well, as i said, there are guys next to me but they are all good. never had a captain with poor flying skills.

But i must say that im doing a lot of simulator work at home. Flying raw data flying different approaches. I think practise is good. It´s weird because i fly as a business and enjoy the microsoft flight simulator in my free time

Howdy
