if you're here to compare incidents between SIA and other airlines, I am afraid it would be no competition.
Why is it that people who don't work for SIA claim to know so much about what goes on in SIA? Every carrier will try to keep incidents 'in house', including CX. I very much doubt if the incident rate in SIA is any worse than most major carriers. Jealousy is a dreadful thing.

Regarding FOs doing practice autolands, don't confuse this with doing a practice CatII/III approach, it is only an autoland carried out in Cat I or better. In the event of captain incapacitation an autoland may well be the best way for the now over worked, single crew FO to go. If SIA have stopped even practice autolands for FOs then they have changed their policy.
