I can confirm that the video featuring john mahon has been used repeatedly and with some glee,as an example of "shoddy " crm. by certain individuals at 4 Forces.
Most of our course discussed the comments in private and found them distasteful and somewhat eccentric. I have no idea of any personal agendas at work in the background, but judging by the glee with which the comments were made in the classroom, it would not surprise me if some were evident.
Lest you imagine that my course was a solitary example, it is not. This could therefore have been going on for several months, with hundreds of Professional Pilots going away with a potentially negative impression of a fellow pilot.
No course is perfect, no system is perfect, and there were many positive aspects to the 4 forces course and they did a very good job
in the Sim.
All the more reason to cease the sniping.
Very silly.
