>Thoughts anybody?<

The only issue I consistently find is lack of lookout, or more specifically the lack of an LAI workcycle. A high proportion are also surprisingly poor at raw instrument flying initially but that soon comes back. Judging roundout and holdoff heights can be a problem -- converting a B747 captain on to a Grob 109B recently was entertaining for both of us -- and many seem to have forgotten the first principles of visual navigation. But airmanship and CRM are almost always exemplary in my experience.
