FlyingStone makes an interesting point, and I know from various Trainer's comments over the years that the idea of thinking about the flight in terms of energy is sometimes lost on even relatively experienced TP pilots. Thinking exactly in those terms has saved me from embarrassment a few times over the years. When you have the facility to slow down on a sixpence, I know from personal experience that one can get a bit lazy.
That said a good turboprop pilot should be front of the hiring queue to my mind, but then I'm biased! Ha ha
