We hired a guy in his sixties. Took 3x the amount of time to teach a younger pilot how to use the GPS. His first EMS mission, he decided not to use the GPS and flew in the wrong direction after dropping the crew off at the hospital and landed at a miltary base by mistake. He was held at gunpoint and taken into custody until the next morning. The crew had no idea where he was. It was finally sorted out and he was gone a week later. I am not saying all older pilots are tech challenged, but most are set in their ways and it if it is a choice and I was a pilot hiring manager, I would rather hire a lower maintenance person. |
