I may be making a judgement on a sample that is not representative but the more I speak with CPs and ODs around the globe and the more I witness personally the shortcomings of a significant minority the more I feel that even a fairly crude weeding out of the no-hopers from the twin-turbine sector would set us in the right direction.

I am a great believer in the restorative possibilities of effective sim training because I have seen it work but there are some who are simply not going to make it and they need a different kind of solution that should not include adding to the risk-management equation in a negative way. Maybe they can cope better in the single engine world and then 'grow into' the job over time.
