I would not put all the blame on BBD.
The new idiots at TC are causing a lot of problems for both the operators and the training centres.
In our case because we have so much material to cover because of the way our training manual was approved by TC that a lot of the sim time is basically just "tick the boxes" which does not promote learning at all!
So we have to cover the required material and then try to do extra stuff. We do follow some of BBD's scenarios/syllabus but we also modify them. This is true for the "annual training and when a PPC/ride" is required.
However at the 6 month training we are not bound by all our/TC training requirements so we the pilots get to say what we would like to see/practice which is a much better learning environment.
All new to us now is the TCO thing for commercial ops in Europe. Because of this now we are required do to an "internal PPC" every 6 months and CATII training every year.
