G you have a large subset though that the CPL is virtually bypassed with an in house check.

They have everything set up to move straight to shiny fully automated jets.

Now instead of going for the CPL which to be honest isn't where the problem is. they need to go for the Instructors courses and examinations more. And get a grip of the syllabuses

In theory you have to do a pre course test but I have never known anyone failing one.

this stuff has to get banged in from the word go. And as long as there are pilot that have been trained with pseudo airline ops pish they will bring it back to GA flying if they are allowed to instruct.

So either ban them form being instructors and propagating this pish or get the syllabuses that they are taught changed to teach them the correct way of flying this class of aircraft.

And change the FIC initial test to be done by an independent FIE which focuses on the basic skills.
