Lets just hope that the fixed wing boys do not go down the route of the rotary chaps in which pilots were flying 'spirited' manouvres that were no longer taught at BFTS/AFTS/OCU because they knew it could be done. It cost lives including passengers and rear crew. The old and bold reintroduced wing-over instruction in acceptance that if the crews were going to do it, they may as well be taught how to do it safely and with finesse. Dilution; or rather further dilution of basic stick skills cannot possibly be a good thing.
