Default Re: Instrument profiles?

Like I said before, I can see both sides on this issue. I haven't determined if profiles in the Warrior are good or not, but I can see some merit in having them. I can also see the points made previously about not having them. I was a little skeptical at first. However, it's what we're dealt and I believe it falls upon the individual CFIs to fit them into training. I think a tactful CFI could present them and utilize them in a way that is very beneficial to the student. If the CFI just throws the student the book, saying "learn these profiles, they'll prep you for CRJ," now that is where I can start seeing some of the negative attitudes developing. Part of the idea of the well rounded pilot is getting experience in as many different areas as possible, letting you develop a preference.
