I have no experience with AQP, but from what I read here, it doesn't sound good. "Train to proficiency"? Come on! You can almost train a monkey to proficiency. There has to be a cut-off point somewhere.

As for steep turns, stalls etc.. nothing wrong with that. Sure, you don't do them in the real world. However, that doesn't mean that being proficient in these maneuvers does not apply to the real world.

It sounds like some feel-good make everybody happy singing Kumbiya crap....again, just from what I am reading on this thread.
