Default RE: CD Waiver Sign-off... The Best Propeller Plane for the Test?

as a waiver CD i won't sign you off unless the flight is accomplished on a turbine powered aircraft. the reason being that flying a fast aircraft with flaps/retracts is only a small percentage of what you need to know about turbine powered aircraft to be safe with one, i want to see you get it ready to fly and then start it up while explaining what you're doing and why.

it'd be like giving someone CDL after testing with a bicycle with a little red wagon pulled behind it.
