I never did really understand what the hell we are doing giving experienced pilots a couple of circuits in any aeroplane these days. Apart from the huge cost, we'd be far better employed doing a session of landings in a good ZFT sim where we can control the weather conditions and the guy might actually learn something useful. Comments refer to someone who's already rated on similar equipment - jet to jet or t-p to t-p - not to someone who has never flown a medium/large aircraft. That's what sims are for. Learn the basic technique there. You'll make enough mistakes on the line!
