Sounds like utter tosh the whole HPA thing. What's there to know? It goes above 25.000ft, it goes fast, it has a turbine.

A turbine is easier to manage than a piston, fer god's sake.

1hr of ground school should take care of that ("the onset of hypoxia up high is quicker"), all the other stuff is practical and belongs in the type.
