Never said our CAT II was hard, but failing to make one of our dozen callouts contribute if the PM (CA) gets distracted by ATC. Originally Posted by backtoregionals

Also, don’t you think it has to be taught correctly for it to be learned correctly? Where do we teach it in the SIM? JFK, IAD, IAH. All flat land airports. The whole concepts of using BARO only become real when flying a CAT II into ATL (or similar airport) where you have varying terrain.
And, screwing it up during a line check should send both pilots back to the SIM to be requalified in CAT II...: Unfortunately, we are too short of pilots to do that.
