Good point you raised. Unfortunately there is a disturbing trend in aviation now. They tend to be looking for "rocket scientists" to man cockpits. I was informed by a follow captain recently that "stick and rudder skills" were well down the list of priorities that were needed for the job.

I would have thought that some of this basic theory belongs with the initial principals of flight examinations.
