Mike,
With all due respect, I don't think anybody here is suggesting that.
Of course, it is better to get some dual time with an instructor. But at the same time, and I speak for myself, I see nothing wrong with exchanging pilot techniques and sharing our collective experience with the newer cadre. Before I obtained experience in the CT type, I found the information on this forum very helpful as I progressed along in my training.
I am still learning . . and I thank the pilots on this forum for passing on their words of wisdom.
