What the heck are you going on about?

If 2 airliners crash over London, is it likely to be caused by a P2F cadet? Hardly, I suspect. Are these people so hopeless they can't turn a heading knob correctly? Are they so useless that ATC would miss an oncoming collision?

Get real. You make any argument you may have totally worthless by debasing it to such an unsubstantiated load of crap.

There are numerous safeguards against a P2F disaster (even though I don't agree with the practice of P2F at all), and they are:

1) Training;
2) Standards;
3) SOP's;
4) CRM;
5) Captains, and;
6) Common sense.

Just because P2F stinks (and it does) doesn't mean that an accident is just around the corner. Especially not a scenario as fantastically ridiculous as the one you describe.

If you want people to listen to the diagnosis of a spreading Cancer, I suggest you talk like an experienced Consultant Oncologist, and not some crazy Voodoo Witchdoctor.
