Not at all. Carry on with your rants about what individuals must be like to fly with.

I take offence to the bracketing of captains being afraid of OFDM or too lazy for some reason. Don't tar "most captains" with that brush.

The facts are there has been a huge increase in the numbers of commercial aviators in the last 20 years.

Combine that bulge with lower experience levels for entry jobs, or command in many companies and you have the beginnings of the recipe. Add to it, a recruitment system based on ability to pay and not actual ability at all......

It's rather like the FMS: rubbish in gives you rubbish out.

It shouldn't be about whipping people into shape. They should already be the right shape to begin with. Right back to initial training and selection, standards have dropped significantly.
