Sighhhhhhhhh......

It is also important to understand how critical it is to have a crew of TWO fully qualified pilots in every airline cockpit, not a captain and an apprentice. Every safety protocol airlines use is predicated on having two fully qualified pilots. The captain should be the leader of a team of experts, not an instructor teaching basic skills to a novice.


TurningFinal36.....yes, a very experienced captain is just as susceptible to hypoxia....but I'm betting that he/she will get a mask on before pointing at the EICAS for 30 seconds and saying "Check Cabin Altitude and Rate".....get my point?
