I was once told by a UK CAA Training inspector to ensure crews covered the thrust levers and Control Column below MSA during my debrief after a TRE revalidation.

Having now moved to a ULC carrier, I get a bollocking from a line trainer for covering the thrust levers and control column below MSA.

Didn't argue with the LTC, no point, but I found the SOP in question in the Line Training notes, apparently they are worried about cadets freezing and overpowering the flight controls.

This is the problem, the guidance cadets are given is appropriate for their level of experience, the trainers use this guidance for all pilots in a one size fits all training programme.

Useless.
