I would have to disagree - the 135 and 145 aren't representative of any of the front-line aircraft other than having MFDs instead of analogue instruments.

We will create a generation of military pilots who just pull to the FLI without considering Tq, Ng, T4/6, Nr - very much a dumbing down when they will be expected to utilise their military craft to their absolute limits (and possibly beyond) on the front line on ops.

It will be interesting to see the fuel bill from doing all training on twins instead of most on singles.
