That, jonty, is the stupidest remark I have seen on this thread. Stick to flying your wheelie bin, you do not need qualifications for that.
To be fair we are only 8 posts in, so give it time.

However, having spent the last 8 years flying these things, I stand by my comments.

The manuals are terrible, and the training worse.

When I first came to these aircraft, after many years on Boeings, the first words out of the instructors mouth was: "you cannot stall these aircraft, they will look after you".

This utter rubbish was from an approved TRTO. That attitude, I believe, has lead to the deaths of a significant number of people.
