Training standards
My experience of flying traing standards over 20 years 64/84 seems as varied as the above writers. My next 20 years as a civi pilot were much the same.
Throughout this time a single unchanged value. The media exist to write stories nothing more. They write stories that make headlines and appeal to the already formed ideas of their readers. Never expect fair treatment or the truth
I was asked to appear on that Street Doctor thingy at an airport and agreed because I have a lump of metal in my shoulder and wondered if would have to come out one day..
The organiser started by telling me to wear my hat while drinking coffee in an airport cafe, said no. The doctor arrives and they tell me not to stand up. Said I would always do that for a lady, "oh well we won't be able to use it then" end of broadcast
