I am always worried about inexperienced people in High performance types.
Does "high performance" count as complexity, in the same way as tailwheel etc.? It does in the States where anything with more than 200hp requires additional training and an instructor sign-off (61.31f) but I'm not sure what happens here - can't find a reference in any of my PPL books.

If it doesn't, then why not? - and if it does, then isn't it a failure in the training system for pilots to be in command of a high-performance aeroplane that is beyond them..?
