Sounds sensible to me... too many newbies have yet to learn that a good pilot is much more than someone who has a grip on the FD... it involves real life/real problem experience in all weathers/terrain/equipment and crew idiosyncrosies... it's time the CAA/FAA started to re-think experience requirements not in terms of simple logbook hours but in valid experience.
