I know a lot of civvie SWA pilots and military SWA pilots and I've never heard this.
Personally - I as a F-teen driver as you say - do some things better than other types of military pilots.
They (all the non- F-teen drivers) do other things better than I do.
I told a story on another thread recently that a 3,000+ hr former Part 135 pilot came thorugh training. He did pretty well....but he wasn't the best out of the class. For instance - at the carrier qualification - the top hook award was awarded to a guy with about 250TT.
