    Although I see goodness in an IPC, I'm not for making it an annual requirement. But if I did I would definitely be against setting min hours and use of a sim.

    It is funny, somehow I was expecting this kind of response after I included "mandatory" in my question. I am not going to tell you yet if I agree or disagree with this question but would you mind telling me: why not?... anybody?

    I simply don't see how adding more seemingly arbitrary requirements adds any value to the process.

    I think the question is asking too much at one time. I'm not against an annual IPC. I'm not against a minimum hourly training requirement. I'm not against the use of simulators. But when it's all rolled into one question with no wiggle room, the answer is no.
