Knowing it all
JD-EE
Just to clarify: Regarding a pilot being "Released" for flight, no where would I indicate anyone "knows it all" or is a seasoned pro. But instead is merely qualified. Period. Hopefully as you said one will continue to learn and grow.
But you can't also make the case based on merely numbers of hours.
With the extremely limited bits of information on conversations between the pilots no one really knows what went on and what happened amid all of the confusion.
