SIA GRASS CUTTER

the PIC of the grass cutter was a check airman. many of the check airman at SIA are untouchables and a law unto themselves.

they harass students and new DEC with their BS.

the training at SIA is all about flying numbers. what is for cruise, approach etc. they are robots.

when there is a cross wind whooooo heeee you can see the guys taking a few panic pee's and totally in pensive mood trying to get through the crosswind. it is an experience to be with these fells in the flight deck.

FO are given to land only in CAVOK less than 5 knots of wind. the command upgrade is a minimum of 10 months. all this adds on to the pressure on the individuals.

this incident is the tip of the iceberg..... i hope i am wrong!!!!!!
