I like a person who knows what he is talking about. And as I've said,
I'd also want to see him fly.
From your comments, below, it's clear that you *don't* want "to see him
fly".
You think that you can determine how he flys by watching from
the ground ...
I didn't say that, although I was pretty sure you'd infer it.
If you use the word "fly" in a piloting group, it does have certain
implications from which one can infer.
I meant watching him fly in a full-motion simulator, so that I can
observe his piloting skills safely before trusting him to fly me
around for real.
Unfortunately, this isn't one of the implications of the word "fly" in a
piloting group. It's also an equally unreliable point of reference, though
I can see it now; two "toy pilots" in a real plane... scary thought.
