<But what concerns me more is that some pilots believe
that they could move from a C-182 into an ES with little transition training>

 

This is a concern.  Also a concern is that many of the accidents happened to very experienced pilots who made unfortunate decisions.

Specialized high performance training  (www.lancairtraining.com) should help make better decision makers out of all of us.   I have been impressed what they have had to offer.
