I'd hope so. Was I taught feel? What
else are you taught when learning to fly? I'd guess that over 50% of the flight PPL training is / should be learning the feel of the plane. Only when I started IFR training was it more procedural training. Being and getting that ATP is more about mastering procedures, but maintain that mastering that "feel" of those pulleys and cable driven flight control surfaces is ultimately one of the most important aspects of flight.
