If you want to learn how to fly an aeroplane, read the manufacturers manuals, FCOMs, Training manuals and listen to the people who train you. They are doing their best to instill in our you all the experience and knowledge learned and earned over the past 100 years of aviation. Anyone who tells you that they know better is wrong, an idiot and dangerous.
Ignore them and their fantasies.
... you may as well add:
  • cancell your PPRuNe membership, and never read TechLog
  • Never read industry magazines, or professional pamphlets from organisations such as BALPA
  • never read original NASA research papers
  • Absolutely never discuss flying with experienced pilots

...etc.

I happen to believe that I don't know everything about my job.

I believe that to be true of my company's training department and Boeing's US lawyer-flitered lowest common denominator manuals as well.
