And what do these MPL (or twin star to airbus) pilots do ?
They retract the flaps instead of the gear on takeoff :
Incident: Easyjet A319 at Bristol on Feb 16th 2016, flaps instead gear retracted
They enter into alpha floor because they think pulling up with no power will increase their speed :
Incident: Easyjet A320 at Paphos on Jan 7th 2015, Alpha Floor Activation on approach
They don't flare and bang their aircraft on the ground :

What is very very contradictory is that I myself would very much like to be an Airbus pilot with 250 hours of piston, and I am wondering how to avoid doing mistakes such as the above with this little experience.
