A lot less time required for the regionals and airlines. Fresh flight school grads are finding right seat jobs under 500 hours total time. The more modern planes are doing more work the pilots less work. Basic airman ship is suffering very badly with the new generation pilots. In the 80's we would stall every thing we flew on empty legs just to see how the airplane would react. The plane would give you tell tail signs of what was going to happen. ( Like steering feed back on the 911 right before it swaps ends) These sensations never felt like the airplane in the simulator IMO. I have been gone along time from professional flying, however I think this type of training is key to preventing these type of accidents.
I may get flamed but spin training should be mandatory for the private licensee.
It's like ABS and stability control in the cars, your missing something. I want to know the full range of the machine.
