EASA ATPL Theory needs reform?!
Well, I thought this s a nice subject to kick-off a little discussion.
Here's my opinion, and I know that I'm not the only one out there, the EASA ATP exams is a shining textbook example of a flailed concept. Instead of educating pilots this concept promotes the "jack of all trades but master of none" pilot. It's nothing uncommon that many training captains complain about the poor knowledge of junior FOs. In my opinion it's high time to restructure the EASA FCL syllabus, especially the theoretical part in cooperation with qualified specialists, such as instructors and training captains and leave the armchair-pupers from Brussels out! I think France already did the first step and revised the IR theory, if so, hopefully this process will continue and will be adopted by other member states.
So, that was my opinion, what do you think?
