Geoffers, agree 100%. Also in tha training we need to be ready to "Bin" the incompetent tossers who latterly tend to launch official complaints against Instructors and Examiners, for what in majority of cases, seems to be and accepted practice to mask unsuitability at the most basic levels.
Also spineless middle management pilots who accept the "Yes" men over the "No" men and who in themselves, so inexperienced, that they cannot cope with the demands of the older, wiser more experienced crews.
Bring back the days when the CP was truly the "Senior" pilot.
Training needs addressing. People who crash in the simulator..............what are they capable of in the real Helicopter!
