Well.. if you are not able to handle the full range of the aircraft's

There is no sunbstitute for practice and experience. In my club you
needed 100 hrs to fly the 20 (after Ka-8, Astir, ASW-15, DG-300 and
ASW-24), and this is a value that I'd regard as safe.


Just curious (only flown an ASW20 two or three times, a long time
ago)-

What two-seaters do you train in? Do you have any high performance
flapped two-seaters used for advanced training? Something nicely
spinnable like a Puchacz for spin training?

I agree that it can't be done without practice and experience, I just
have a suspicion that what the practice and experience is on may have
a bit to do with it. Also training can be pretty useful.
