Thanks for the post. Very informative, sadly I was not able to get your link to open.
Don't get me wrong, IMHO CAPS is a good piece of kit, and worth the weight-penalty/cost but obviously not is every situation and not something to make one discard shall we say, skills which "traditional" pilots have had to rely on for years......much in the same way when I learnt to fly in the RAF we were still taught forced landings without power in aircraft such as the Jet Provost, Hawk (and Hunter) even though we also had ejection seats.....these were taught with both night and IMC procedures to follow such as the basic flame-out controlled descent through cloud to the "one-in-one" which was a bit more challenging.
Fly safe!
