Why don't you just tell me then how valuable it is to watch Mr. Jones
make an S-turn and to tell Mrs. Jones how she's almost as good as Mr. Jones..
Sure...it'll help you if what you want to do is Aerial Photography in a 172 or some Traffick reporting....
But in a 121 environment? Teaching someone how to fly a single engine prop doesn't mean a lot.....
ppl think it does because it has always been the standard....but in reality it
was just an easy way to build time.....
And when the so called Sh!t hits the fan...and the infamous "captain is incapacitated"...the only thing that's gonna help you is knowing the airplane you fly....and know how to fly it like it's your B!tch....
