A good example of pressure vs decision making is a subtle engine failure on final in a turboprop.

.. much the same observation for a jet .. standard exercise is to fail one on mid finals and see how long before the troops pick it up .. certainly sorts those who have a good scan from the rest.

... but so few have the brain space to implement this - only sim instructors or examiners on type who've seen it over and over and who are regularly exposed.

This is why V1 concepts have to be kept simple - knowing and understanding something is completely different to being able to reliably apply deep knowledge in high pressure/low time available situations.

Hole in one, good sir, methinks
