I see jas has reverted to insult, always the last resort of those can't argue their corner. He also completely misses the points:
at 120 hours someone gets on the radio and tells you what you should do...you won't question it.
If you think that, you are not a pilot. At 120 hours (indeed at any time you are flying as a qualified pilot) YOU are CAPTAIN! YOU make the decsisions, not some guy on the ground! If you don't understand that you don't understand what being a pilot is about.
you can now be right seat on and a380/747 with ZERO command time!!!!!!!!!!
look up the mpl you muppet!
I think you'll find that was the point I was making. I refer you again to the basic lack of pilot skills demonstrated by AF 477 and the Colgan Dash 8. And before you call me a 'muppet', perhaps you should consider that the airline industry, in the light of those two pilot-induced disaters and some others as well, realise they have a problem.
But hey, you sound like some sort of expert. maybe you know best?
