They just shrug and pass on an unsat. Single engine day comes and again straight into approaches and no work on aircraft control. Most of the ground and sim instructors admit there are shortcomings with the training but nothing changes. This is very frustrating to all of us.
Anyone who is against the 1500 hour rule should read the above. This is one reason why it is important to have some time under your belt before you take a swing at 121 flying. This is also why the selection process for new hires is so stringent; they want to be sure that you will make it through the training.
Hey love2av8: At the finish of each portion of training they give you a critique sheet to evaluate your training experience (if you didn't get one, ask). You can bash them all you want in the critique and it's all annonomous.
