The lack of AOM knowledge is a reflection of the training department. AQP has enabled pilots to become lazy and not learn. How many new pilots could draw the hydraulic system and actually explain how it works? We are not AA and despite the dream to standardize everything with them, our training needs to be more robust because we are seeing a different type of pilot than them.
