The fact is, he wasn't raised to be a pilot, so he is not optimally equiped, mentally or physically, for piloting. Someone with a military background (or a more physical one, maybe) might have a chance at being a better pilot than Kira.
Also, remember, humans are arrogant. Just because they claim Kira is perfect, doesn't necessarily mean he is.
