[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This has brought to light some huge failures in pilot training.  I think it’s fair to consider is this is related to intentionally filling more women into these roles that were previously closed.  Did that alter training standards? Or is it something else that has caused this massive training failure? Is it that they were trained properly but the culture has changed pilots go off script and don’t follow standards because they feel over confident- and that’s become acceptable?

But the pilots of Vietnam could fly their bullet ridden low tech helicopters through gun fire, landing with ease between close trees,
where staying on the ground for seconds longer than absolutely necessary means low survival.  I think it’s care training standards have changed as well as acceptable practices when out of flight school [/quote]

Lol this is a glorified taxi service route. Are you suggesting that the military should only allow its very best seasoned fighter pilots to fly as taxis? Seems like a misuse of resources, no? [/quote]

I’m saying this route should have been zero problems for properly trained pilots [/quote]

The route is a problem for everyone. There are frequent near misses.  The taxi service needs to take another route or stop.  [/quote]

The system “automatically communicates with all commercial aircraft within 12 miles of other aircraft,” and gives a voice warning 15- 30 seconds before a projected impact, but “does not provide warnings or course corrections below 1000 ft.”

Ok. So not exactly helpful near landing strips.

Not helpful because won’t do last two miles and isn’t in black hawks.

Doesn’t black hawks have a radar an instrument panel?!? Couldn’t they see the jet lined up for runway 33? The very runway and plane landing that ATC told them 3 times over 4 minutes to avoid? [/quote]

Pretty much yes. [/quote]
