Meiklour. Very interesting, thanks so much. I gather you have trained many A330 pilots.
Questions on your Unusual Attitude training.
1. Did you do these in the sim at low (terminal area) altitudes, high altitudes, both?
2. Given how rarely the trim wheels are needed or used, do you feel that the training you described -- in which you showed pilots where using the trim wheels could be be required -- was one of those training points that sticks out because it (using the trim wheels in flight) is so uncommon a task?
3. With that in mind, if we were to put 200 A330 pilots into the same room, how many would not have recalled that novel training scenario?
My guess is that most would recall it, given the rarity that the trim wheels seem to be used, and the association with unusual attitude training. Is my guess consistent with your experience in training A330 pilots?
