I agree with Wayne on the difficulty of the 05' Advanced pattern. Though I havent been in the shoes of the pilot who had to fly it, to me the known and certainly some of the Unknowns seemed as difficult as many Unl. patterns that I have flown. I think those patterns would develop the skills of a pilot to be ready to start Unlimited.

In fact my thinking was more that the jump from Int to Adv was too big if anything.
