Though I'm still skeptical of the line dudes. I got screwed at ORF once. They dumped it but didn't re-fill it. I handed over the $20 and allowed the unit to be placed on the ground while I was tending to other duties. Only after line dude had walked away did I realize it wasn't fully "serviced".
Then I have to re-connect it.
So, I guess for me, it's a combination of "DIY" and "line dude".
There's no way I'd let someone outside of the organization disconnect or reconnect the tank in the back and drag the unit to the front of the plane. Too many opportunities to screw it up if you don't know what you're doing.

Most of what I've heard at CAE is that some pilots are used to feeling the instant deceleration. And are jumping on the E-brake too early and too hard.
And just an update on the performance issue. I found the info I was looking for, it's in the enroute section.

It looks like you are using Vfs in the enroute calculator as V2 cannot be used. Given this, how are you calculating obstacle climb performance as Vfs is similar to Venr which is enroute climb after the obstacle has been cleared? V2 is the number to be used for obstacle climb performance.
I would concentrate on completing the initial training.

Where and when you accelerate to Vfs is of course at the pilots discretion.
