John,

 

You sound like you're in a hurry, not the best way to be when you're checking out in a new airplane.  Even if you have a lot of high performance time, I would still think it would be a good idea to work with more than a few V speeds.  I would recommend Ron Galbraith for training through HPAT.  He's done a lot of first flights and initial training for the ES guys.

 

I would rather err on the cautious side.
