A lot of this discussion isn't really fair, though -- as I mentioned, I'm a
fairly high time pilot (for not having been taught to fy in one of the
services) and lots of that time is in the same aircraft. I read its mind, and
it reads mine, pretty well.

You can say the same thing about your airplane, can't you?

About my airplane perhaps, but not myself -- I'm still under 300 hours. I
agree, though, that after even a couple of hundred hours in the same
airplane, you start to know its behaviour very well.


All the best,
