Don't see the value in CBT - the old Hate sheets worked well and helped the training. I guess some things need to change over time, but at what cost? and what value? does not seem to make better pilots (?) Seems some sequences don't even get covered because the instructor did not do it for whatever reason - X/W ops being a good example. Trouble is that we now have 3 or 4 (perhaps more) generations of instructors that don't know what they don't know!
Airmanship fell off the training truck some time ago - used to be part of every brief and debrief.
I heard it said a few years back that a pilot passing a Commercial Test today would not have passed a Private Test 30/40 years ago. From what I have seen, I would have to agree.
