Centaurus, can you come and do my sim sessions? Please?
The company I work for have a huge long list of things that the instructors feel they have to cover, and it is impossible within the time. This list is in addition to the standard things we have to do (like single engine stuff and approaches). We never have time to do any fun stuff.
We do work in real time though, which is more realistic but eats the time up.
We do monitored approaches if weather is poor, with FO flying "inside" and Captain "looking outside". Incapacitation of the FO after one of the first calls, perhaps followed by a failure, leaves some Captains continuing to look outside and waiting for the next call, without realising what has happened.
A good Airbus one is failure of the PF's sidestick at rotate.
Personally I like to try out stuff on sims. I like the visual circuit one.
