Default Slow Flight

Slow flight is a skill. Crosswind landing is a skill. Exposure to long

makes a pilot "mature" and safe.


I agree with that assessment to a point.

It works IF they have the judgmental ability make use of that skill
and experience. I've seen several pilots lose that ability and I've
seen some that never had it and even with over a 100 hours of training
were never going to be safe.
