Just watched "Children of the Magenta Line". That should be required viewing on all training courses on a modern aircraft. In my last job we had a lot of
P2F First Officers, which made us effectively unpaid line trainers (although I have to say that since these were not strictly company employees, we had a "spare" FO sitting down the back). Even flying over Europe a question such as "if an engine failed now, where would you go, and why?" could leave them floundering. I never tried "if I were to die now...? The answer would probably have given me sleepless nights. Enough thread drift, just wanted to put my bit in.
