In those two crashes there were major questions about the quality of pilot training vs US protocols for handling emergencies.

Historically, most of the American pilots have served time in the military. So they have experience in dealing with emergencies. But now we are having an increasing number of civilian pilots. And they are becoming more diverse. So their training is unlikely going to be like it was in the past.

So that is going to be a problem when they're flying the 737 Max.

Yes it's true military flying is much different and it can involve flying a damaged or marginalized airplane that civil pilots rarely encounter.

I also think going into the mix is that pilots, in general, are becoming more systems managers and less aviators.

The Air France crash, years ago in the Atlantic, was a classic demonstration of that. The crew didn't recognize or know they had to fly out of a stall that their automated systems created with a frozen pitot tube.
