no part time pilot should be operating this type of equipment.
If only it were really so easy to predict or guarantee outcomes!


The only standard we really have under current regulations is to require them to undergo training and competency evaluation at intervals. When the MU-2 accident rate was noted to be unacceptably high in comparison to other types in class, the standard for training & evaluation and experience in type was increased by the mandates of SFAR 108. What else do you think needs to be done?
