I would quite agree with Kieth. If a crew must resort to "emergency talk",
that is good mishap prevention, but if the crew had been functioning
effectively all along, they would not have needed the intervention strategy.
I often hear crews debrief CRM by saying "we got confused, someone called
'Time Out', and therefore we did good CRM today". Wrong answer, I said. If
the pilot flies a stable and precise approach, a "go around" won't be needed
unless an outside trigger creates a mishap potential. Then, an intervention
strategy, tool, or technique must be employed. I think we need prevention
and intervention teaching.
