What tosh! What is with aero's pilots that makes them believe that throwing an aircraft around the skys makes them a better pilot than the tourist?
Does all that 'head in the box watching the numbers' flying make your eyes go funny?
I wrote 'improve your handling skills', nothing about 'being a better pilot'.
Of course, you may think that improved skill with the flying controls rather than improved skill with the avionics controls is the same thing as being a better pilot. I won't argue with that, but it's not what I wrote
