Yes. If they're going to put dangerous people on the line, hold them accountable. Don't feel bad.
Some new guys just don't care when they screw up. No "sorry about that", no questions, no effort to improve. It's infuriating. I'm the jerk for saying, "hey, what just happened there?"

The reason I let him, actually I asked him to hand fly it was because his approach to landing the previous day was such a $hit show, that I just wanted to give him a chance to practice some hand-flying and perhaps gain some confidence.
I should have submitted an ASAP on it. Perhaps I still might turn one in.

This!!! ^^^^. ^^^^^
Going from OKC 2 IAD, early am still dark. I was going let Mr. "56Thousand" hand fly it up to around 10K.
All was going "OK" until two things happened:
1, I was looking down, reviewing some past write-ups in the can. (My bad, I know)
2, we entered IMC. within seconds, we went from:
Climbing, Northeastbound toward a fix....Wait for it....
I hear "BANK ANGLE BANK ANGLE"
I look up and see.
We are descending over 2500fpm, going SOUTH, 45* Bank!
"My Controlls!!!"
I gitter back all nice n good AP on.
I ask him ***? He just shrugged "I don't know..." That's it. Nothing.

Did you contact a CP and ASAP it?
My guess is you did neither, and you're part of the problem.

must have happened extremely quick because flight trackers show no deviation of altitude or heading. and the only flight going from there to there this morning had an FO of a 53k number. might need to verify all facts before posting.
