I agree completely.
We get quite a few folks coming into the 170 program who lack swept wing jet experience and who are unfamiliar with an FMS.
If someone wanted to do a little advance study, I'd point him to these areas. I would not encourage anyone to study specific systems in detail for the reasons given by Boiler.
