How is all this mess tested ?
That part is quite easily answered: that’s what the training is for, amongst other things of course, and exactly why people aren’t taken from the sim and put in a live environment without Instructor by their side for approximately the first half year to year.
That’s also the reason why the previously mentioned Dutch speaking trainees went from LGG and CRL back to BRU/ANR/OST.
As per your request about a fireman from Bruges... we have a Dutch guy in EBOS and he seems to be coping very well, so yes, it would work. It’s still a heck of a lot easier to learn to understand a dialect of the same language you speak, than a dialect of a language you can just about make yourself understood in.
