Preflight Tips to check if a pilot is a real pilot

Example

Fully Employed NSOP B200 Commercial Pilot with about 300 hours or less:
  • does not know how to check if the aircraft door is closed & locked,
  • does not know [if] there are fire extinguishers in the B200 cockpit and/or cabin (even though one is under his seat),
  • does not know how to buckle his seat belt shoulder harness (says he never used it before),
  • et cetera, et cetera.
NB: the B200 aircraft is the ONLY twin engine (multi engine) aircraft this particular pilot has ever flown. He presumably trained for and obtained his twin engine pilot license in a B200 aircraft [only]. Not to mention, his father is a B200 DGCA instructor & examiner. Go figure!
