I very rarely concentrate on my driving, its almost exclusively
handled in the subconscious, the same with e.g. skiing or other
occupations where automatic responses are better and faster than
conscious thought, even when driving at speeds over 100mph where
you wake up a bit

So you admit to having so many incidents that it has become a learnt
response.

No, you stupid ****

I used to, for example (when safe to do so), take a roundabout sideways
in a controlled skid when I was in my late teens, or lock the wheels
on ice to learn how to recover in a controlled manner - just like a
pilot learns to recover from a stall


In days gone by, I did the same and got my then finance to do the same so
she could experience the get out procedure.

A pilot learns that in a simulator where possible, that's what
simulators are for, learning how to crash not how to fly.


No, they definitely are not.


So you think that pilots aren't put through training in a simulator that
involves then crashing if they get it wrong.
Like engine faults, fires, stall, and anything else they have time for?
