Quite right, Crash one. I do the same, except, since a bad experience many years ago letting a nosewheel pilot do the landing in an L4 Cub. He was a GA instructor of very many years (on spamcans), an ATPL with an airline day job, and very current. But he (me really for letting him do it) almost destroyed that Cub and possibly us as well. I caught it and recovered it in nanoseconds at what I thought was too late... but we and that lovely aeroplane survived. I don't know how. It's the closest I've ever come to aviation disaster. I might spill the full story on here some time; we'll see.

But it's the last time I'll ever do that!
