Harvard, without doubt. Failing that, any aircraft with a conventional U/C. Why? you are taught to use your feet near the ground. The basics are the same, whether it be a light, median or heavy aircraft. Why does the basic trainer need to be a jet? The only difference making it a jet is the power plant, is it not?
How many airline pilots these days can land the aircraft properly in a max demonstrated cross wind or max limited cross wind? Properly meaning, touching down, with the aircraft on the center line, with the heading and track the same as the runway heading, wings level, or ideally slightly into wind wing down?? Not many. A conventional U/G aircraft will give the student some idea. The modern trained airline pilot and few ex military have "no idea", in general.. Not their faults, as they haven't been trained.to do just that in basic training.
I am aware what the book states referring to a lot of heavy aircraft. Basically arrive, with no corrective action. This of course is legal ass covering, which absolves the manufacturer of any responsibility in a screw up in the case of incompetence.
