200 hours in 1250 flights is quite suggestive, don't
you think?


Sorry, I don't get it. Suggestive of what?


Quite a lot, really. 9 minutes 36 seconds per flight,
on average.

Interesting, I have roughly the same average with 1540
hours and 8500 launches. I must be in-experienced as
well then.
A lot of instructors get stuck with that sort of average,
goes with the territory they don't have the opportunities
others do.
To my mind the launches (and landings) are an indication
of being able to get it right more than pure hours.
