If you can't trust him you can't trust anyone. This was me and a very experience individual. Climb down off the cross there mr high and mighty. You just enjoy being a smart arse and that kind of attitude doesn't belong here in my opinion. How many hours do you have? Why should I trust you flying me around? You say you're busting my balls by making a smug one liner? No you have bad attitude. Forget I ever mentioned anything. I'll pretend there wasn't anything I could never figure out then sit down get online anonymously and play your card.
In contrary to popular belief, the airplane is not a classroom. Figure out your equipment prior to the operation. This is another sad case of too much software in the cockpit. You could put the finest equipment in the world to make the safest aircraft possible, then suddenly turn the whole thing around by putting a pilot in the plane that doesnt know how to use....I guess every once in a while someone slips through the cracks.
