Old Fella
We come from the same 'old school' as I think you know. Missing Blade and others do have a valid point. I very rarely see anyone hand fly above 1000' and, frankly, in today's busy environment, it creates its own hazard by overloading the PM. We lost a crew member when glass cockpits were introduced. He/she was replaced by a superb autopilot system and most of us use it a lot. So if you come to CX with no previous 'upside down' you are going to get none - EVER. All that is OK if your airmanship skills are good and the aforesaid Autopilot works properly in its efforts to protect.
Much time is lost in some of the recent fatals by pilots desperately trying to restore the autopilot and forgetting to FLY THE AEROPLANE!
