TRF4EVR, Your right. The Koreans are the canaries in the mine! It wouldn't cost the airlines, pilot's unions, or FAA/BSA type authorities that much, to implement some continuing education and certification on some Cherokees, 172's, or whatever is cheap and appropriate for developing or keeping up modern pilots manual skills. Maybe Burt Rutan and his brother could come up with something inexpensive and effective? They certainly have the passion for aviation and creativity to either point out something off the shelf, or create an inexpensive bird to keep pilots sharp in manual flying skills, and not just be a warm body in a uniform.
