I came to flying after car racing in my early 20s
Driving a car at high speed and out of shape as well as spinning and crashing the things made me very comfortable with a car now and those skills saved my bacon on a number of occasions since.
I am sure you get my jist regarding planes?
Ok you may have to specify types for aerobatic training to avoid training accidents but incipient is a dangerous route to take !
Bad vis looking for the runway and incipient becomes real .
Aerobatic training may just give you the skills to save your bacon ; )
