[Hughes500]

DB
Let me be very very clear here, I was asked by the guy and his school to run over VOR as their machine didnt have one. At the same time i was asked by both to do the following (he was briefed on what we would be doing) some general handling and some emergencies.
So you are telling me that a relatively easy emergency to deal with in a Schweizer 300 would be difficult for a 10000 hour pilot to perform ? I am afraid that everyone of my PPL's that I have trained will put one on the ground with no help from me. You have just confirmed what a mess our industry is in if a 10000 hour ATPL couldn't do that, what the fu.k are they doing flying a helicopter if they have to be trained before their OPC. So what happens when the pedals are stuck the day before their OPC ..... Sorry passengers I havent been trained for this so we are going to crash
I agree with you don't want to be in a machine with you
